Hmmm didn't know the inside portion of the convert. boot comes painted? Mine is tan leather and the other portion is painted the car color. Looks great man! :up:

Update time:

So yesterday I'm getting ready to put the car up on jack stands as its time to start tackling the brakes/suspension and before I get to it...I notice that the tan vinyl on the tonneau/convertible top cover doesn't match my interior....I knew this before...but for some reason it just bothered me today...so it was time to get to work...here is the end result....I still need to properly tackle/buff this area....







Ok...so then finally she's up on jack stands...and I was only able to get one wheel off...didn't want to wake the baby...oh...rusty hubs FTL.



more to come....slowly but surely she'll get there.

Well...another video clip of the car running...hood is on...and after the PC treatment...the pictures above almost don't do the work justice...



Enjoy!

Now...I need a new AFM, brakes, suspension....oh...I forgot...finish the interior...LOL

[oekundar]

Well...after getting semi-motivated...I cleaned out the garage...pulled out the vert...wiped her down...and started with the PC7424....here are the results:











Now...if only the paint on the hood/trunk were just as good as the doors.... :/



The car is not completely done....this was just compound on the driver's side...she'll look fairly good...considering she needs a new paint job:

[ZM Blue Devil]
