Took em long enough to get here, but I finally got my Cobra floor mats. Still need new carpet, but it can be on the back burner since these look pretty good.

Scored on Craigslist tonight. Got some chrome 03/04 Cobra wheels for $375.

It doesnt even look like the same car on the inside. Great job cleaning that beast up! $375 is a great deal on OEM Cobra's. Damn craigslist is kind to you. Here in cali you cant find **** on craigslist that isnt a scam.

Thanks. I need to clean it again. Just did a clutch swap and it got messy inside. There are a lot of scams here too, but I just get lucky sometimes. Finally got my GT sold, so I can start planning paint.

I need to stay out of these types of threads.... This is like a recovering alcoholic hanging out at free wine tasting event.

I think there is a little more appreciation for the car when you helped bring her back to life. There's nothing wrong with starting with a pristine car.... but watching the car return to its formal glory is what it's all about.

I was very happy with the deal, I honestly didn't think he was going to take what I offered.

Lol. I actually prefer to bring em back to life, rather than starting pristine. I have done it with quite a few of my previous cars. The biggest and best job that I did was my 92 thunderbird SC. Once the weather gets consistently warm and the tax season rush on cars is over, I will commence with paint.

Thanks. That car was awesome, but I just couldn't keep it running right. I put 3 engines in it during my 8 month ownership, finally sold it off dirt cheap just to get rid of it.

Damn, I'm going to go look at some clean T-Birds from that style... that looks sharp and there's really not that much done to it.
