[bernzpeed]

[craiggroves91]

Good work! Can't wait to see the outcome

[Cabriolet]

Went to bernz's today to get a good gas tank and rear subframe, along will misc stuff.
This week, the last of my first of a few phat orders all came in from blut. Thx blut!
Euro trim, IS lip, clips and head studs.

All the hoses and brake pads had arrived. Killer quality! This can isn't even finished getting gutted and im already jelly of the parts going in to it. If I had known when I was building my car I would have gotten all my stuff from blut.


Brembo rotors! Didn’t even know I was getting that nice of ones.

I'm very interested in seeing the outcomes of this car, especially interior. Its great that you're letting your wife help! :)

[bernzpeed]

Cab, are you working on the car today?

[Cabriolet]

Stacey, the gucci fabric comes this week. should be fun.

Cab, are you working on the car today?

[bernzpeed]

Stacey, the gucci fabric comes this week. should be fun.

Eric, why no talk to me about upholstery?

This is my brother's work (Creative Interiors)

Edwin, i didn't even know u did interior. Kevin Chin did my front seats and is doing my backs now. and I've already arranged with him to do her interior.

Christian, i'm hoping for 2-3 weeks.

[IRON-E]

No prob dude, Kevin is pretty dope. I just kinda keep it on the low 'cause most people cry about pricing on interiors.
Seats should be the most comfortable part of your car. 20+yo leather feels like alligator skin compared to re-upholstered leather, fabric or vynil.

Sawzall is a cure all. Since someone tried to steal the car before we bought it the column has to come out. I tried to get the bolts get the bolts out the right way but got bored. I do have a whole other column that will go in. ill get to removing the bolts correctly after she comes back from paint.


I then moved to the headliner got most of that out but the glass needs to be pulled before the rest comes out.
Any tips on getting the sunroof out w/o damaging the track?


This is what the engine looked like when I started on the harness removal.


Supported the front and when to town on the subframe.


Got distracted and removed the Power-steering lines ( have new one from blunt) and then pulled the engine harness.


Bye bye subframe


There's a stash in my dad's back yard.


Donor engine waiting for a full rebuild. I'll start that project while the car is in paint.


This is all that is left. I'll tackle it next Saturday.

Another shipment arrived from Mr Blunt last night and the Gucci fabric arrived. That pretty much the only update. I’ve been slacking because of the heat.
We are going to use the dull side up and only in certain light is the patter even visible.



More stuff comes from blunt today.

[Cabriolet]
