got the nylon tubing from ebay, lol. got a whole bulk load of it :P

also, figured out how i was going to install them oil pressure and temp sensors... didnt really have space on the skull&bones oil adapter plate... had some conflict with the adapter mounting bolts... probably couldve used some threaded extensions or something... but that would probably look dumb :P

so... got a sandwich plate from ebay, lol. looks nice

fixed the carpet problem, the other carpet i messed up, so this one came out way better. gotta learn the hard way

and FINALLY!!! i got a set of silvia fenders. thank you novita1021 super cool guy!

jon_mr2 · 04-05-2010, 01:06 AM

yesterday i had a little time to throw on the fenders and headlights to see if they lined up ok... and they did

so happy, finally looks like a car again... kinda

figuring out the wiring

ahh so fresh I wonder how much someone would pay for the finished product.

killer240 · 04-05-2010, 01:20 AM

Unknown007 · 04-05-2010, 03:40 AM

Well i been seeing your progress and just wanted to point something out.I saw that you have all your plans pretty good and laid out but when i saw your kill switch idea, well I suggest you should've kept that to yourself.I got a good place where nobody will think of looking PM I'll let you know.Good job and I'm loving the car.

SeXi_BaRbEe_Drifter · 04-05-2010, 04:04 AM

trying to keep budget down... but its hard when you want to find good parts and ship them all the way to a little rock in the ocean

This is the epitome of awesomeness. Most motivating project I have seen; So much so that I have been inspired to complete my '72 mustang restore. Keep this going; it'll serve others well. Good luck with the wiring though o.o It's a pain, like everyone else has said (and I know through experience lol).

RS76 · 05-06-2010, 05:49 PM

I just read through the entire thread, EPIC! I cant wait til im older to do something like this.

rees1347 · 05-07-2010, 06:28 PM

TerminalSamurai · 05-07-2010, 10:46 PM

This is probably the most legit project I've ever seen, props man. Keep up the awesome work.

Hawaiian240 · 06-28-2010, 10:02 PM

Looks great Jon! Wish I had the time to stop by when I was back home though! Next time I will and we can talk story! Awesome work brah!

locoluna825 · 06-29-2010, 10:32 AM

Hey man, very nice restore/build thread, I loved every bit of it!

Do you remember When you bought the vinyl paint for your dash did you purchase the flat black or the just the black paint? and did you use the same vinyl paint on the center consol as well?
