    I think this came out pretty nice, what ya think? All the Seats recovered. I am satisfied with the interior paints I used on the doors and dash. Stereo is kicking, new rear deck pad, carpet....:D....Kirk.......... I added a Before and After Picture Here ...Before April 2008-Now June 2010

    Ya lots of prep clean-up I really took my time cleaning all the panels ,and sanding with Scotch brite on Metal surfaces. The paint I went with for the lower dash and Doors was SEM #15173 Camel, The center Door Panels with Dearborn Classics Med Ginger. I just did a chunk at a time......Kirk

    Now all you need is a new dash pad or a cover

    The radio Is a KENWOOD kdc-mp538U It is a 2 knob Cd Receiver with a USB Interface, I-pod Ready ( you can see the cord hanning). RCa,MP3,Sat Ready,HD radio and remote. also Bluetooth Unit Ready 50Watts x4 Ya Welcome to 2000. It was the only thing that kind of retained a 2-Knob Look with all the Moderon Features. :thumbs2:
