    I rather have full interior honestly. I want it to look all original. I thought the cage seats and harness would be cool but i don't want that for a daily.

    Also I changed her up this weekend.

      Also no hood because it pushes down the intake on the power steering and cuts the coupler. Gotta fix it somehow

        Makes sense.

        So with all said and done, do you think it was worth the effort? Would you do it again?

          honestly it's been a huge learning experience, I've spent twice as much as i needed too because i didn't know what i was doing. i'm glad i did it. I'm just glad i can finally get in it and just take it to wherever i want.

          400 miles on it so far. Cold start ol psi is 40-45
          when it's warm driving it goes to 20-25
          then at idle it gets down to 5-10

          two more oil changes then i'm going synthetic. what do y'all reccomend 10-30 castrol?

              So was it worth it? Or still too early to say?

                                It's slowly getting there, yesterday i took it out to go to a wedding and it was about a 400 mile round trip, pouring down rain for about two hours, i look behind the passenger seat and there's an inch of water there. So yeah, that pissed me off. now i gotta figure out how it gets in there.
