Great weather here in PNW so I've gotten to drive it a lot. Which also reminds me of all the things I have to fix...

Good news is I'm finally getting started on the interior. Took off the airbag wheel and installed the 3-spoke sport wheel which cleaned up quite nicely. Also recently picked up late model black sports seats and matching rear seat w/ headrests. Already have black door cards so all I need to do is get new black carpeting and the conversion will be complete.

I dont get this obsession with having undersized tires. The car would look so much better with tires that actually fill the wheel well

I have a 205/45 on the front and a 215/40 on the rear. I not slammed/bagged or anything, but any thicker of a tire on a 16" and I'll be rubbing probably.

I like it how it is, as I think it sits nice. I'm not trying to go OEM+ on this car

I think it looks really good man, keep up the good work and glad you got that idle bug all worked out

Thanks! I'm glad it was sorted in time for the good weather.

Haven't had a lot of time to do much with recently. Even with the upgrade to the m20 radiator, car seemed to running a little warm around town, but was perfectly fine on the highway. Main issue was it would start heating up if it was idling too long, so with summer approaching it wanted to change that so I installed a fan, clutch, and an m20 radiator shroud.



The bay is starting to look pretty good


Being in there made me realize how filthy it is. On the left is probably 24 years of dirt. The right is quick wipe with a towel after being sprayed with degreaser.


Also showing CCA pride now!

Just read the entire thread. Car looks great and wheels made a big difference IMO.

Keep after it.

Thanks!! :D

I'm actually already considering what wheels to pick up next so I can alternate sets lol

Gave the interior a much needed change today. I had already removed the airbag wheel and put in a sport wheel, so I need the seats to match. Door cards were installed by the PO so all that is left is getting new black carpeting and of course a matching parcel shelf. Also put in charcoal 1 series floor mats out of my parents car, they replaced them rubbers so I went ahead and took them.

Rear seats are pretty much mint, passenger is good, but the drivers side is fairly ripped. I plan on having them reupholstered but I definitely couldn't wait to put them in anyway. I also like having rear headrests, a must for sedans.


Yuck

More yuck

More better


Floor mats
