Here's a pic of the sweet Viper alarm system that was crammed under the dash...what a disaster.That u haul harness octopus looks like the anti theft octopus I took out of mine lol.
Glad you got your driveability issue sorted. Enjoy the ride.
Thanks! It's far from perfect for sure. I'm going to keep working the exterior to get it as best I can without repainting it. It still has original paint...it shows but it's not a total trainwreck.Halfway decent? Looks pretty sharp to me. We are our own worst critics arent we? Well unless they run in the family..
Thank you! I'm still unsure on the rims to be honest. They are 18's with very low profile tires. My favorite rims are the mid 90s cobra SVTs, but they are tough to find.Looks great! Those wheels look good on it. I like the deep lip on the rears. Interior looks real nice too. Good job!
Nice. Glad it worked out for ya. I'm planning on doing the windshield next summer. I should have just done it when I had all the trim off. That stuff is stressful to remove. It's so delicate.
I worked in an Auto glass shop ( Circa late 70's) when the fasteners/clips on cars were metal.... It seemed like the thin metal clips helped cause the start and spread of rust under the trim,, I think the plastic clips have helped prevent or at least slow the rust that the old metal clips " in my opinion" aggravated the start of rusting in the pinchwelds..... Plastic isn't always a bad idea..I get ya there. I pulled all the trim off today and broke one of the plastic fasteners on a lower windshield piece. Everything else came off well... thankfully.
I just had Safelite come to my house and replace it. I pulled the trim off myself beforehand since I needed to paint it. I would pull the trim off yourself...if someone else breaks it, they might not tell you and just goop it on with windshield adhesive.Where did you get the windshield from ,was it aftermarket, did it have the ponys in the tinted lower part?
I'm looking to get a new one and was wondering if I should let a shop do it in case the trim clips brake at least they'll have new ones..
If I go with satellite ill watch them and make sure they don't break it.I just had Safelite come to my house and replace it. I pulled the trim off myself beforehand since I needed to paint it.

I was in the glass and window industry for over 35 years... NONE of us in the industry use Safelite.. ALL of the Safelite and EX Safelite people I met, would not use Safelite Windshields in their own personal cars...If I go with satellite ill watch them and make sure they don't break it.
Interesting. I typically use technaglass but these guys were Mobil. I'll let you know if the glass is distorted. I do know that Safelite did the glass on my wife's Tacoma and it is wavy at the ends...drives me nuts.I was in the glass and window industry for over 35 years...

Just saying......
I consider a rumour unfounded gossip .... These comments were straight from industry workers and Safelite employees..Why? Perhaps it's an industry rumor.
