Grey October DUW

[Paul_]

these were taken on october 5th. the car had a broken ignition cylinder, holes in the dash trim pieces, no multifunction switch, an 85mph cluster, etc.













and heres a pic of that eyesore of a domelamp :cuss:

today i finished installing the upper dash trim pieces, the 140mph cluster from shifty, shifty's lock cylinder, the multifucnction switch, the headlight switch, and some of the lower dash pieces like the knee panel and the piece that the ashtray slides into. as soon as i get some dark blue paint, i'm gonna throw in my OEM cupholders :smirk:

















and yes, that piece does say Grand Marquis thats my little bit of riceiness I liked the woodtrim on the GM dashes better, so Pete found me some dash pieces. all thats left for the dash besides a cover is to try to get the trunk release mounted, the glovebox reworked a bit, a cover, and my cupholders thrown in, plus the radio. oh yeah, the steerinng coulmn shroud too

thanks for the compliments guys. she definitely has a ways to go but she's getting there. so far i'm planning

a 3g conversion with a 130amp alt
mild HO conversion
blue velour town car seats
since the car is going to be kind of a toy, i'm gonna do a nice stereo system with a custom sub box in the trunk pan
lx sport wheels at some point
some other things here and there

If you were closer, I'd sell you my leather Townie seats outta the Vic. Unless you don't like leather, then you can fuck off...no, I'm kidding. :evil:

hmm, how much? i still have a couple vacation days left and i might be able to scrounge up the cash, plus travel money to get to pa

[boXman]

I was thinkin' around $75, front and back seats. Make an offer if that doesn't work for you.

[Paul_]
