ok after the its home sit there and stare at it phase was over friday night i got busy alot finished this weekend.

again big thanks to kevin for helping out!

ripped the back wheels off installed carriers and callipers, hand bent all brake lines ran new ebrake cables installed MC and booster hand bent both front brake lines (kevin) installed new firewall grommets ran hidden wiper rack wiring, removed front fenders ran hidden headlight wiring and some test headlights installed. ran sds engine wiring into engine bay comming out behind steering rack along with the battery cable for starter. cleaned and reinstalled beading around door openings, cut carpet padding and laid it, followed by carper and one recaro to test the gangster lean cleaned out most of the interior scrubbing old stains off the paint also adjusted panels to fit perfectly all lines matching. it was a long and heart felt weekend im in :heart: more soon!

edit* put power to the car for the first time since i owned it and woala! all my simplified wiring hidden lengthened whatever works great everything fired rite up minus the fuel pump which isnt there and the starter which isnt there! i have good feelings about the first time i try to start it!
