Got a few bits ready to go to the powdercoaters tomorrow.
Need to find a mint cream carpet and then I can finally get the cally interior out of the bedroom,
where it has been for the last 2 years and back in the car!
What parts are being powder coated? I've never had anything powder coated before...
Why not consider getting a darker carpet instead of the cream?
I've seen pics of a Calibra that has cream interior, but with dark carpet
and it looked heaps better, and more user friendly...
Wow... 2 years with the interior out of the car...

Re: Engine bay Overhaul!!!!
I doubt a dark carpet would suit that interior ...and as for "and more user friendly" it is a show car, not an everyday use car.
Re: Engine bay Overhaul!!!!
Think it has to be cream carpets like Fraz says its not an everyday car. So if anyone hears of any give me a shout please!
Dropped the bits off at the powdercoaters, should be ready before the weekend
Just started a list of things to do hope Steva has deep pockets!!!

Re: Engine bay Overhaul!!!!

Parts ordered and delivered
Bushes in place!
Started building the rear swinging arms up. Put the new back plates on along with all new handbrake parts.
Hopefully get the hubs pushed into the arms tomorrow then start cleaning the rear diff up.
