now i just need the gauges



thanks again robyn for your help!

i will be doing the door panels and dash next. possibly looking to buy door panels instead of painting. i've had previous cars that i painted and they scratched. but that was before they introduced plastic paint in aerosol. has anybody painted there door panels? how scratch resistant? i have two boys that get in and out. i don't want to see gray again
hey your car looks beautiful! i love the black headliner, i have to show this to my son, he wants to cover his headliner in black suede too. i read somewhere that the cold can make the adhesive lose its sticky-ness, i noticed one of my visors (of all things to fix ) was lifting. try parking your car in the sun and see if it doesn't go back. if you decide to re-do it definitely use the 3m, they have an adhesive just for headliners. do you have any junkyards near you, thats the cheapest place to find parts, sometimes it takes a while to find what you're looking for but its usually worth the wait price wise.
