Project "Dedicated Service"

[Shaolin Crane]

well last night i tried to finish the other door panel after the concert, big mistake i was so tired i started cutting the other panel to add the black strip and cut the thing clean in half and didnt even realize it until i went to sew it not so now i have to go back to the fabric store and get more, but least it gives me an excuse to go buy the rear carpet for the car, stay tuned for big changes on the car

finally cooling down so i tackled the inside of the car this weekend, i think it looks like shiot since i have no insulation in the car and really just didnt care for the stripped interior look, but here are teh pics

great idea making your own door panels i think i will do the same since there really isn't much to them

Looking good Guy! It will be interesting to see ALL grey plastics in the interior, I think we're all used to the grey/black.

i just couldnt justify paying the 400 dollars for door panels i dont want anyhow, the center console has been modified with some rocker switches for the windows and the door panels are being left smooth with no arms rests, so it should be a different look, hopefully it looks good

well almost all grey, dash is now grey/black, but other than that its all grey hopefully have all the wiring figured out this weekend and can have the car completely interior layed

did a good job on the door panels, looks good. Looks like a lot of work with all the interior panels off, but in reality you can throw all those on pretty quick. Like the seats, what kind are they? And are they pretty expensive? I have been looking to replace my seats with something a little more racey, but some of those seats are really expensive...especially Recaros. Keep up the good work!

ehh the seats are just cheap ebay knock off of recaros but are pretty damn good knock off, worth the 100 or so i spent for them

yes sir, but i dont need to lift the carpet up for anything, and i dont want the rear portion of the carpet sliding around so i did it the cleanest way i could without making it look totally like ****

 

[Shaolin Crane]

BTW does anyone have the round covers for the rear hatch shock openings and a arm rest delete they wouldnt mind donating or something

 

[Shaolin Crane]

alright probably the last installment for the next couple weeks, next weekend im going to vegas so im trying to get as much done as possible, car does need to be ready by oct 31st for a charity car show for one of my students anywho covered 1 door panel and hung it, just temporarily though still trying to figure out the damn wiring for the new window switches here are tech pics

 

[Shaolin Crane]

they arent perfect, and i'll probably end up having the professionally recovered down the road when i become more anal about the looks of the car, but for now looks just fine for a race car

 

[Shaolin Crane]

Alright no picture worthy stuff but i did get some stuff done, rebled the brakes after installing the speed bleeders, and now the pedal is ****in hard, too hard guess before i had air in the system making me think the pedal was fine, so i ordered a 95 cobra r master cylinder and will have the installed this weekend, as well as a 95 gt master cylinder for sale pm me if interested

 

[Shaolin Crane]

OK new bootster in, gonna bleed the brakes today, install the new windshield, finish installing the drivers side long tube, hook up the bbk h pipe, and hopefully sometime this week start sewing the passenger side door panel, finish the window wiring which im having hard time with since if a window switch isnt hookup they dont wanna work, anywho stayed tuned as somtime this week i'll have some drive videos and oh yeah pics

 

[fivespeedsteed]
