Just some pics of the new project. 108k miles. Originally from Denver. I’m definitely reverting the custom steering wheel back to original when I source one. Yellow painted headlights need to go too. And the tucked bumpers need to come out just a bit. I’m going to keep the Racing Dynamics 17” wheels though. And I’m pretty sure it’s been lowered a bit which is fine as long as it hasn’t affected the ride too much. Otherwise it’s a very original car. Still has the Alpine tape deck and the original flashlight in the glovebox. Weirdly, the fog lights have been deleted along with their relay and 2 fuses. The A/C has been converted to r134a and it’s cold, but blows very weak out of the face vents, though the blower in the dash sounds like it’s going fast. When the compressor is on, it has a metallic rattling noise to it. Also, I need to look at the fuel lines in the back end, it smells like raw gas outside, but not in the trunk. Eventually I want to get the larger euro low beams and a front air dam. I’ve already put Tanner’s Hide Preserve by Eagle Ottawa on the beautiful black leather and applied Lemon Pledge to the natural wood.

Thats a great looking car! Those RD wheels look nice. I am looking forward to seeing your progress
That is clean looking. Euros lights do give them an edgier look. Do I see the euro style turns signal covers on there already? or is that the post face lift style?
The turn signal covers are the same between euro and NA on the facelift models.
