lets see that

little more is getting done as we speak, got the dash out the old was extremely dry rotted and huge cracks i forgot how simple the wiring is in an unmolested rabbit! even with the aftermarket cruise control! (removed) by tonight the engine bay should be completely degreased and shinny once more. pics soon!

Nice find.

I had dibs on the seats but decided to get the Recaros re-upholstered instead. Gave me a sick idea though. Got anything for me to do tonight Brandon?
