Just missed it, neighbor told me that they were gonna have their fireworks tonight, I could hear the sound bouncing off the hills behind me, (Simpson Park). Yea you probably had perfect seats from where you are. Tomarrow fireworks brought to us by Valley Wide.  :)

Thanks for the advice. I am still waiting for pics of the longitudes and rockers. It has been several days and the seller still hasn't sent me those pics. Assuming the longitudes are solid and the car is still for sale when I get back from my vacation in a couple weeks I think I may go for it. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)

Make sure to get some good pics (note: multiple and varied) of the Hell Hole (under the battery) That is another VERY important area. As many here can tell you it is usually alot worse than it may appear and a proper repair CAN be as much as $1500.00. At it's werst this area will actually extend into the suspension console and engine mount, so you want to give that area a good twice over as well.

let me make it simple how do you fix this?

as quickly as possible... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif)

a welding helmet would also be a good idea, to minimize damage to your eyes...


If you want leather, look on ebay. There are people that sell dyed hides for about $100. That would be more than enough leather to cover your door panels and dash. God speed. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Wow...I usually never comment about personsonal tastes but man ....
In the last year I have seen people try to change out or sell out thier Brn interior. It shouldn't be that hard to find, or collect the pieces over time in black then swap it for a brown, but it if it in your budjet, go for the re-appolster.
I don't know if CTripp still has his set for sale.
I hope it works out for you...if not, I am seeing members finding some good examples (cars) on the East coast now...

Anywhichway it goes, I wish you luck, Welcome aboard.
Later
Joe

I just got the pics of the underside to day and am posting them in a new forum.

as far as dash cracks what is the best way to go: $80 topper, replace with nice used one $250 or have it recovered $500?

how much do you want to spend? actually you can find a used dash for less than $250, usually... that's what I did...
