Re: Show off the little stuff! Reply #16 – June 19, 2005, 08:25:12 PM Now that's what I'm talking about. Good use of the space, and something I would definitely consider doing on one of these. Maybe the '88 with its lighting package or whatever. Quote Selected
Re: Show off the little stuff! Reply #17 – June 20, 2005, 12:07:23 AM Just thought I'd take a quick pic to show my progress on this. I'm down to the 2000 grit wet part. This will be cleaned up a bit when I hit it with the polishing compound and clearcoat tomorrow, and then it will be done.. but this is a decent idea of how it will turn out: Quote Selected

Re: Show off the little stuff! Reply #26 – June 20, 2005, 12:32:05 PM Hey Eric, how did you fit those bullit pedals on the stock pedal arms? I was told there was no way to fit them! That is the one interior mod I'd like to do to the inside of the car, and I would appreciate any help you could give! Quote Selected
Re: Show off the little stuff! Reply #28 – June 20, 2005, 01:54:32 PM OK, the HO plate was just finished. In fact, the last coat of clearcoat is still drying in one or two spots in this pic. (mainly down in the recessed areas) Quote Selected
