Interior need a complete overhaul (console, headliner, seats, dash), wheels are shot, and then the obvious outside damage. Should be a fun project for the next few months. Once i get moving on it i’ll make a progress thread up. ---

numbers … i think stock is like 190hp/210’# not sure if i’m going to really play with this much. Might be my summer DD, and do more to the M. Right now the focus will be to put it back to normal, then i’ll see where i am financially since i would like to be in a house by next summer. > [@dreid](#): > > Have you started pricing parts yet?? I bet they will set you back some change Yea, got lines on most of what i need … the hood so far is the worst for the outside (~1k from the dealer and paint). Interior wise, i have no idea yet. Its worse that i originally thought, but shouldnt be too much more than i thought money wise. ---
