    First, get it running lol (electrical problem)
    Re-do interior, probably all black interior
    Get some raceland coilovers
    Re-finish these wheels and get new tires
    Get some tinted aeros
    Paint it a fresh black
    New mirrors
    Clean up the engine bay and drive with it until it dies and then swapping in a 16v or vr6

    That's about it for now.

    Haven't really had much time to do anything except try and get it running, still nothing. So I put that aside until I can get money to get someone to come out and fix it for me, and started to do my door cards today. Got the fabric off, going to re-do it in black suede to match headliner and with red strips. I'm taking them all off and then going to buy the fabric and glue once I get the car up and running (don't wanna spend money on other things until I can get it running). I only started doing the back today.

    Here is how it looked when I first took it off.

    Here's the fabric all alone

    Here it is without the fabric (nasty)

    All cleaned up

    Other side
    Before

    After


    I don't know if I should re-do the leather on the door cards. How hard is it? Is it the same?

    How did you do it? Did you just overlap the new fabric? I did it this way because it'll stick much better, I'm looking for new strips but no one wants to take them off and sell them and I can't find new ones anywhere. So I'll just have to re-finish these and paint them red (they used to be red but are faded like a mofo) lol. Yeah that's cool man.
