Default My summer fall project with many pictures

Here is what I had been working on over the summer and fall. It was a learning experience and adventure . In the end it was well worth it.

New full exterior Paint: Show room finish (Glasurit paint)
Completely new interior: Custom designed and with Austrian leather throughout
Original German Weave carpet throughout
All new rubber seals, weather stripping throughout
Completely new stereo system: Morel Speaker system, 2 Alpine amps and receiver, two 6 inch subwoofers in arm rests, Rebuilt the arm rests to accommodate the subwoofers and the sound and look incredible!
Power coated brakes

and more...but here are some pictures for now before and after

I had a great time showing it at the German Auto fest last September and had a chance to meet many rennlisters. It was a great time!

Great looking car, Congrat!!

I am also in the process of painting ALMOST the whole car. I would like to ask how much are you paying for the exterior paint?

Thanks

Holy Smokes! That's beautiful.

I certainly hope you are on belay, as that is one hell of a steep slope!
