restoration in progress

My restoration project has turned almost into a cheap episode of Overhaulin'.
right now I have a gsl rearend going in, new front bumper, waffle style wheels, Ekamei front lip, racing beat muffler, new carpet, and a few other new body panels going in.

Im considering a cd player in the glovebox, and new speakers, and the racing beat suspension package, and the RB foam filter.

right now i just have my new seats and arm rest in. (i think Yellow79 might recognize them )





and what the car currently looks like

Wrecked front bumper and nose piece removed. ready for new ones to go on after some sanding and surface rust repair.


Waffle wheels on, but are off balance. I'm going to take them off and clean some of the dirt and stuff out of the inside of the wheel and hopefully that will fix it.
