Theres still a lot to do, I am looking for a few interior pieces still because the interior was completely blue when I got the car, ever piece of plastic painted, blue cheapo racing seats, and blue carpet. I have a whole new interior sitting in my computer room, but its minus a few pieces. This is a lot more of a project than I expected it to be lol

I may look into it, my family owns a junkyard in morrisville, luckily they actually took in a del sol last year and i got some parts, and a fellow sol owner on the forums also hooked me up pretty well with almost a whole new interior, I am happy with the progress of the car, and in about 3 weeks it will really make another step up, I am pretty excited.
