Just cleaning. All the brown stuff all over the pay is a mixture of tons of dirt and oil spray. It's the BIGGEST pain in the butt to remove, especially on the firewall.

I'm really happy that my build can inspire people!:D
It's really not that hard. I honestly had no idea how to do it before I started.

Here's are a few link that might help.

I need to take some pointers as well, I have some late summer cleaning to do before it gets all cold and crappy.

It's not much of an update, but it's a little bit of progress towards getting the car where I want it. I took the rear seats out today. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I am building this car for me, and that's it. I know exactly what I envision on this car, and that's all there is to it. Now I can get a better idea on cage design and measurements.

The view I'm used to.

Did a little bit of cleaning. Not too drastic as I already cleaned this when I got the car. I will be taking care of the rusted spots shortly. :)

This puts me at 141.99 lbs removed. If anyone cares you can find the weight info in the mod list on the first page.

Oh yeah, and I dried my car using an electric leaf blower. I think I'm a genius because there's no water spots on the car at all, and I was able to get the water out of the tight spots like the door handles, and between body panels. My neighbors probably think I'm crazy. :lol:

I do that all the time. My neighbors think I'm nuts just for washing my car.
