here we go with the interior, before i stripped it... the only thing left on the inside of the car is the steering wheel, climate control stuff (which i will be taking out anyway, so i can do the digital control conversion... need to install sensors and some servos for the digital control to work.... waiting for the rest of the parts for that to get here from japan)
the interior is all out for sound dampener removal... got all of it out, just need to get the residue bits out (i used a scraper and hammer.... not the dry ice or heatgun method)
here we go with the center gauge panel test fitted (before my oil temp gauge got here, thats why the middle one is empty)
and none of the new nice control parts instaled yet.... not until after engine goes in and car gets painted (the pedals, shift knob, sidebrake handle, other fun stuff.... not sure if im going to keep using the nardi, or switch to the momo..... the momo is new, but the nardi has history with the car... (even with the top right being kinda worn)
ready to drive
in theft-deterrent mode
im going to do a wireless remote killswitch ..... either kill the ecu, the spark plugs.. or the fuel pump ... (or maybe all)
i think thats a little more effective than an alarm... just disable the car at the push of a button on a remote control.... that with the quick release steering wheel, and i may do shaved door handles... and i think any car thief will move on to an easier target

here we go with the sound deadening stripped out, there was 35 lbs worth of tar crap that i scraped out... i just need to get the little chunks off... WD-40 and 3M adhesive remover are awesome at removing the sticky residue ... ill probably use a heat gun to quickly get the big chunks off, been concentrating on the engine build latly
