Yea the interior is like a war zone lol, a little bit stuck with trying to get the rest of the dash out, so having a break from it before I BREAK it lol.

As yet no rust, have a donot vl to swap the doors with as there in better nick than mine ( windows and locks etc) only $200 for the donor and I think it has a manual gearbox which im looking for.

As far as colour there are a couple of ideas, one is a fire orange colour, or a deep dark blue, or old faithful Black. Will have to see what happens as the build continues.

If you have any ideas as to how to get the remainder of the dash out please let me know. HAHA

Removing the top part of the dash and the side vents near the windows. Do I have to take out the front window to do this or not? I'm actually thinking of not taking the rest out, but will need to retrim the front pillars and it looke like the dash needs to be out!!!
