My day started off getting some parts...



Whoops...

But I'm a problem solver



Got it home and opened her up



Tyler wiped them down



Then started tearing it apart





And going back together



Replaced all my plastics with some really nice mint porno red ones. Big difference and went together like new. Very happy with that.

Decided to take it for a drive and ended up getting the Brent treatment







It's only APRIL!

Thats interesting. My 4th gen leather was grippy i never slid around in them. Must be the type of conditioners used over the years.

Is the center console and dash black? If so id change the centers of the seats to red, leave the rest black. I initially thought white and red would be a nice match to the car but that would probably end up looking like a colgate toothpaste container. Solid white like 30th seats could also be sharp!

Either way, 4th gen seats look great in 3rd gens.

If I could find an affordable way to do this I would probably consider it. From driving with this seats I feel like I am on a slip in slide tho. Moving around all over the place. Much different then my stock cloth seats... But yes the dash is black the console is black the interior has always had a black and red theme from factory. So the black seats do not stand out as much as one would think. I am still going to recover my original seats. Unless I find the all rare red leather interior (3rd or 4th gen).


I have located red interior pieces, so I can finally replace my ugly kick panels and one of my plastics that is cracked. Pretty pumped on it because I found a great deal for what looks like mint pieces. I will have a lot of spares and extras if someone is looking if not I will hold on to them since porno red is so hard to find.

Barbasol works wonders. Just get the unscented kind or the car will reek of musk for years.

Still better than what the carpet in my 86 smells like.

Do i spy 1997+ seats in there!?

Good eye, yes you do. Still not sure how I feel about the direction the interior went, hence no pictures on here. But I did pick those seats up from a member here at a great deal and I am putting them to good use. Huge improvement over my old seats, although I am still looking into getting them recovered.

Looks great!

Thanks, should be hitting Woodward soon!

On the road! Sweet!

Yep shes on the road, drove her all weekend and already went through a tank of gas averaging 6.7 MPG's a new low!

I have a annoying noise coming from the alternator, probably because I took it apart so many times. I know I am going to have the same problem as last year and break my new alternator bracket... really need to find a different solution for these accessories...Any input besides the $500+ march system would be great, or and no V belts. Curt told me about 4.3 brackets, may have to look back into those.

I still want to modify my exhaust this year. I have long tube headers sitting at the house, need to figure out where to go from there to the back... Suggestions are always welcomed.

no those are the factory option prototype seats that 4th gens copied =) lol kidding

What kind of cleaner did you use on the carpet?

I used a spot cleaner made by Bissell and then my Bissell steam cleaner. I did the carpet, door panels and speaker covers. Hopefully I can clean the rear area of the car this weekend and steam clean the carpet back there as well. The red really came out nice.

Barbasol works wonders. Just get the unscented kind or the car will reek of musk for years.

I have heard this as well just never tried it.
