        Yeah I don't blame you.

        I've recently began looking into doing something like this.

        That is how you're supposed to jack it.

        Up and down.

                          Something else that I've been working on are new door panels. My original plan when I built the car was to fab up new door panels to match the modern dash but I kinda half assed it and left the old ones in there. It's been bugging me ever since and while I was wrapping everything in leather I thought now would be a good time to tackle those.

                          I also swapped my door latches and lock actuator for Lexus/Camry units.
