Finally got a day to myself, so I got out and gave it a thorough interior cleaning today. It was so danged filthy inside. I soaked a paper towel with cola from the coin holder. Since LMR is out of stock on carpet right now, I did my best to clean them, but they are beyond hope. As is the leather. Good news is that the dash, console, and door panels all cleaned up nicely. The leather on the steering wheel was completely trashed, so I cut all of it off and wrapped it with an old school steering wheel wrap, circa 1986.

My phone takes crappy pics in the dark, but I will get some tomorrow.

Had this freaking annoying rattle in the front end, every time I hit a bump it was noticeable, made the car sound like a junker. Got the wheels off and found that the brake pads were bad and the anti rattle springs were bad. Got that fixed and she is quiet. I checked it out while it was up on jackstands. Shockingly enough, it's CLEAN underneath, doesn't leak a drop of oil.

Finally got the pics. The interior still needs help, but it's about 1000% better than it was.

Christmas came a little early this year. Got goodies. Smoked headlights, Chrome gauge rings, Shifter Bezel, and headlight ****. I have smoked tint for the tail lights, but I need new tail lights first, mine are cracked. Also have floor mats on the way. Also got the odometer fixed. Will be nice to calculate my MPGs.

The chrome bezels have always been a personal thing with me. I like what I have, but there will be no more chrome inside. Lol, I didn't even think out it as a storm trooper, but yeah, you are right lol.
