Interior pretty much done. Waiting for the windshield and then the a pillar trim and headliner trim peice. Still need to touch up passenger fender and bolt that on. Also still waiting for the bumpers to come back.

Got the car running yesterday also! Sounds pretty sweet

haha I can't say I've seen too many other cars with this interior. My guess is the door panels are hard to find and the seat covers are ugly and too easy to upgrade to the 'decor package' ones. It was the obvious choice for us to go with the original rout though.

thanks for the compliments guys! hopeful the the car is done within the next 2-3 weeks. There arn't any electrical bugs thus far, so that's a big step in the right direction. I guess in all reality, it is drivable at this point Right at the 1 year mark to boot. Very satisfying having it come together this quickly being how much work was needed.

That is my favourite interior. Yes because the door panels are soo hard to find. Keep up the great work!

well fender should be touched up by friday, bumpers are going to be delivered tomorrow, and the guy should show up to put the windshield in before the end of the week too. If all goes well, it will be done by the end of the weekend.

Alright, so the car is pretty much done. Other than getting windshield blades and snapping the wipers on theres no other task to be done (unless a querk pops up) we pulled the car in the shop last late march and 12 and a half months later its in it former glory. Put about 10 miles on it today with no issue to boot. We plan on having it out at mopars in the park next month so stop and visit.
