This is coming fast quick! Giving Haro a run for the money. Congrats. I trust you had her name off of the paperwork before you even started cleaning it up correct?

Great Job on the car Ryan! Good to see this thing finally get some TLC. The car showed up in your driveway in EXACTLY the same shape as I saw it over the summer...goes to show the car hasn't been washed in years....:(

Love the look of the headlights! Interested in seeing what your going to do with the scratch and right front fender..im sure you got something up your sleeve! :D

It is still pretty far from perfect, has a long way to go. Interior will be back together tomorrow, polishing will take place over the next few days depending on the weather, but will be done by the end of the weekend.

All her stuff removed, paperwork on the passenger seat, and keys in the ignition. All said and done, she will likely regret this and want it back especially when she sees it all nice again, but there ain't a chance in hell she will get it back.

Headlights looks a lot better than the orange. NICE! :btruestory:

Ironically i have my lights out of my car now and was thinking of doing exactly what you did (tint the orange) but i decided to do something a little different. I had to order some materials so it will probably next weekend before i do it. i'll post pics once completed.

BTW: Sylvania 3157A/4157A ST BP SilverStar 27-Watt High Performance Signal Light bulbs are sill available for purchase online (unless i bought the last 4) :wink:

Actually her name was never on the paperwork, everything is now and always was in my name - title, loan, insurance, and registration (which I just had to renew yesterday $130)
