Today was another 9 hours at it!!!! 9 am to 6 pm with a small break to jam half of a cold chicken quesadia and a coke!!
Let's get right to it. I finished putting SD material around the roof area first.
Then I got the sun roof assembly mounted back up again. For those of you who have never tried this alone - I suggest that you don't try. It is very painful on your head (holding the assembly in place) and your shoulders (trying to bolt in the corners while this thing is resting on your head). I should have called it a day right here!!!!!
At least the headliner was much LIGHTER!!!!
Well - I took a break from all this padding this and padding that. I wrestled in the clutch assembly Unfortunately, you have to pull the steering column to do it. I don't know HOW anyone can do this with the dash still on the car!!!
FINALLY - THREE PEDALS!!!
Well - after that wrestling match, I figured I would go back to installing SD material again. Still got alot to finish here!! Look carefully and you will see the silver material along the top of the firewall, etc. This should quiet things done a bit!!!
I need to pick up a few small dash parts tomorrow, so I focussed on the rear of the car again. Here is the car with most of the rear padded.
Let me remind you that EVERY piece got a solid scrubbing with Simple Green (plastic) and Lexol PH Leather cleaner before going back into the car. Almost there!
Voila!!! An immaculate interior. Every piece you see in there has been cleaned including the headliner and carpets!!!
Now I just have to focus on the Clutch master cylinder install, the dash and wiring, and then completing the DF material for the front. I didn't get to any of the doors today, so I still have those to do, but they are probably easier while sitting on a nice clean leather seat!!!
I'm thinking of relocating the battery to the trunk as well while I have the chance to wire everything. SUGGESTIONS???
Well... my back will never be the same but a couple beers might cure me!!!
Later!
