Max777 is on a distinguished road
I decided to rip out the carpet for a good power wash since it was WAY nasty, and then dye it black, along with the dashboard. Then I got the bright Idea to pull out my whole air bag system, including all the wiring and sensors.

It took me 3.5 hrs to remove the dash the other day, but it wasnt "hard". I also decided to remove the headrest speakers, center console control thing for them, the rear antenna (it was broke and stuck in the up position) and all the associated wiring that goes to them. Contrary to what I throught before, wiring is easy as long as you somewhat know what you are doing.

I'm FINALLY going to get my engine tomorrow btw! I secured a 90,000 mile short block with a new clutch for sale for only $200!

It took me a long time to figure out how to get it home, since it was in cincinatti, but the guy is coming to Putnam Park raceway tomorrow and bringing it with him (it's only a 2hr drive from my place)

I also finally found an engine hoist that I can use to make this happen 1000x faster and easier. turns up one of my friends has one sitting in their garage, unused for the last 8 years.

Pics of car and engine tomorrow.
