OahuEli, how did I do? [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
So the car is basically finished, need to repaint and polish the wheels, and I'm still waiting on the fibreglass bonnet from my painter. Got the...

Better shots of the interior, looked orange in the other pics.[ATTACH][ATTACH]
I made some front nerf/tow points and fitted the rear bar.[ATTACH] [ATTACH][ATTACH]

I originally built these for the blown engine, way too big for this little aspo 350 in the car this time, but I own them and they fit the car,...
Dash is done and the wiring is mostly finished and tested, kept the modern bits hidden.[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
