Great find.

I am re-doing the interior of the car because the p.o. painted it all blue / silver and even put 2 screws onto the dash :badidea:

Anyways, onto good news...
:yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
I picked up 4 doors (they are red so i just need to get them painted to match my color) with door panels, power windows, mirrors, and locks.

Got every plastic trim piece for the interior, such as the front/rear pillars, seatbelt cover thingy, HVAC, glovebox, center console

And i got a beautiful dash with no warp :yahoo: !!

The price you may ask for all of this? Ehh i dont wanna brag.
Anyways now all i have to do is change a few more minor trim pieces and then the major changes (dash and doors) will be quite a while til we do those. I will more than likely keep the current doors on the car to let them deal with all of the winter salt and such, and the dash change just isnt realistic in this cold weather.

Ok ok, i got it all for the lovely price of $145 !!

[Chris2000]

my post when i first got it is still in new member introduction. its like the 5th one down "new member" i'm taking some updated interior pics later today, but its still not near complete. the major part (the door panels / doors) wont be changed for a few months.

[Chris2000]

[Chris2000]

Sorry for the double post, but heres some pics of the change so far.

remember this is only the beginning so i don't want to hear you say how funky it looks right now, i already know, but its changing daily.

Took a pic of the HVAC to show the knobs glow, but it doesnt show too well in pics

Ah, my appologies

[Chris2000]

Yeah, the p.o. really ruined some nice valuable interior parts. If they werent all painted i would be able to have all the other parts i picked up for sale. It will all be changed over time.

[Chris2000]

Could possibly do that, but first i need to take care of the major changes.

:coolio: Yeah, i'm going to be switching the shift plate or w.e that thing is called but im keeping that shifter...the stock shifters are just big and ugly.

Haha i have the same one too! I'm so used to seeing it that i didn't notice, except mine has the chrome/blackish combo and not blue. :)

[Chris2000]

So today was a beautiful day so my dad and me tackled the dash swap. It went great! I'll get some pics up tomorrow when its sunny out again to snap some pics.

[paul ron]

Not feeling those gauges.... the Ebay ones are way better

Speedhut chief. the ebay ones are a cheaper version ;)



Chris, glad the car is coming along good and the interior is getting the attention it needs. Whenever ya wanna rewrap it lemme know.

[El Pablo]

Not to be a thread Jesus but how's the interior coming along?

[Chris2000]

Ah yes, the interior is coming along good.
The main thing left is to swap the doors.

Heres the new dash:

The HVAC:

http://i822.photobucket.com/albums/zz147/ChrisDaniak/DSC00771.jpg

Yeah, pretty much the only thing that stands out now is the doors. I'm more than likely keeping the carpet. It looks good to me.

lol stock interior with a bright blue carpet looks good? each to his own

[adam337]

lol stock interior with a bright blue carpet looks good? each to his own

youve got to admit stock looks better than smurf blue and rocket ship silver all over the place..

[Chris2000]

lol stock interior with a bright blue carpet looks good? each to his own

gauges are blue
seats have blue olds eblem stitched (aftermarket seats to begin with, so "lol stock interior" is a pointless remark)
blue led lights all in the car, just need to hook them up
brights are cool blue (exterior)
calipers are blue (exterior)

Point is, the blue goes with it.
