SaiyanEye's 81' LTD

[saiyaneye]

About 4 months ago I painted the steering wheel column black all except for the part that is closest too the wheel a while ago. Last night I found some of the paint I used on the dash face and the other part of the column and I decided I would find out how to get the rest of the cover off. It just slides right off with a little bit of pressure...

Don't mind the RCA running on the floor to the amp for my components, I need to get a longer one and go under the carpet...




Here is the 89 dash front I got off eBay for $9. It was originally dark blue, so I decided to paint it black and go for that two tone interior look. Taping all that shit off was a beast! I also decided to use my 81' vents for it. It seemed to give it a better touch.

Mounted my crossovers to my components in the kick panels. You can also see my speaker grills I modded into the doors, I am going to take them off soon and paint them black, they need it. You can also see some screw holes where the previous owner had some ghetto power window motor, ugh I took that off the first day I got the car. I kind of wish I would of kept it though :-p.

sweet love that interior

Exterior pics will be on here in a week or so, it's too cold here in IL to wash my car, and it will be for about a week.

Looks good, I can't wait for exterior and engine pics.

[Dave84]

Is that Vinyl running down your A-Pillar? Do you have a full Vinyl Top?

If so I definatly want to see exterior pics,I've yet to see any LTD CV with a full vinyl top,I'm very interested to see what it would look like.

Oooh... good early wheel =

That newer dash panel really looks nice. I'm surprised how well it works.

Once you get the split seats you want, that's going to start looking REALLY nice!

Hmmm is that your original speedo? I might have to change teh Box history...

[saiyaneye]

Yes it is my original to my knowledge, why do you ask?

[murphmobile2]

I like that... it has that classic 70's appeal to it.

Hey, I just noticed that shift indicator says OD-3-1. I like that better than OD-D-1. I really want to do OD-3-2-1, but the easiest way to do that might be to figure out how to install a TH-700R4. :nonono:

I bought a NOS OD-3-1 indicator off ebay awhile back.

Yes it is my original to my knowledge, why do you ask?

I was trying to figure out the year they changed them. My '82 has blue secondary speed readings and a white needle like they had to '87 in the CV's. Changed the Box history to reflect that speedo's like yours were used from 1979-1981.

And I never noticed the D-3-1. My '82 has a D-3-1, dunno about the other two. When did they change?
