Not a whole lot done for awhile. Just driving it around and tweaking little things here and there! Here are some more recent pics of the car. Biggest visual things are blacked out the headlight bezels and added a front spoiler I made myself!
Before the spoiler got the black carbon fiber vinyl added. and with the black carbon vinyl. Looks a lot better like this! Let me know what you guys think!

Are you still planning on removing the bumperettes? Any updated interior pictures for the new parts? Looks like you're enjoying it which is what matters the most!

The interior has been partially restored, as you can see (sorta) below. It's hard to see the difference in some parts, but trust me, the interior SEM dye paint made a world of difference on the trim and door panels. A new rear seat cover and foam are in the basement, just have to get around to putting it together. Also a new steering wheel, dash guage bezel, lower dash, and new door sill plates are all down there as well to complete the interior resto. Also down there is a complete Moog front end suspension rebuild kit which also needs to get put on... So I have a lot of parts, but not enough time! I drive the car daily so I have to try and keep it drivable while restoring it, so that's why the dash is a problem. I also leave for college in 2 weeks so it will be staying at home and I'll work on it when I get the chance on breaks. Here's some pics! SWAY BAR BEFORE------- SWAY BAR AFTER------- INTERIOR BEFORE-------- (You can see the rear panels here are really faded, seat is still the same at the moment ) INTERIOR AFTER------ Parts to be put on...sometime That's all for now!

Do the Moog updates at least before you leave for school, that should make a difference. Soon you'll have to find some sticker rubber...Interior is looking good with the fresh color, and it looks like your current back seat is rip free?

The hole is on the lower drivers side, it's really big and just out of sight in the picture. Also the whole seat was dyed at some point and it's looking really worn. I have a brand new seat cover set for it as well as new foam!

Are you going to flip the tires to try and get some more miles out of them before they're too gone, or are you going for new ones? I'm sure your passengers will appreciate the new foam and cover...

Well front tires both wear on the inside so flipping those wouldn't help, and the rear tires are bigger than the fronts so I can't do that either. I'd rather not buy new but at this point it may be my only option. And yeah i'm sure they will! Not many ride in the back but the ones that do I'm sure will like it

If you don't have directional tread, I would have the tires taken off and flip them on the rim. You might have to put up with no white lettering on your front tires, but it sure beats buying new.

Yeah I almost got one of those! I like the '77-'78 front end that yours has, and those wheels fit perfectly
