Funny... Great name by the way...

Eddy, The Dash is looking great... The leather is an added bonus IMO...

Congratulations! Cant wait to see the car at the next meet.

thanks guys, I should be able to pick up the dash today,since I just bought this car in may, I am concentrating on the the minor things 1st, then over the winter I will pull the motor out and do the engine bay.(engine bay has alittle bit of paint peeling and dirty). The guys at the shop are trying to convince me to redo the whole interior leathered out. (they are giving me a great deal I highly recomened them, right next to my car is a porshe 911 that they are doing as well it is sick!) with the money I just made on the 91 GXL I just sold I am going to put the front struts, alignment, get it ready for the next meet, last time I took it out (to NYRA meet in flusshing meadows in queens)the front was like a boat crashing into waves every time I hit a bump..lol
