Well, we pulled the engine and I finished pulling apart the dash. The car is now in the body shop. Only one place in town would do it in less than a year. I'm going leave that shop nameless.

Hopefully this car will be back on the road by June 1!

I need to get some new pics up, but it's looking sweet. We're putting the engine back in over Christmas. Interior is almost finished...the dash is going in now. Changing out the TREs too. I'm running into a few issues on the vent windows- 40 years of rust caused some problems I'm trying to fix...not easy.

Anyway, should be on the road this spring without issue.

Hey guys, need a recommendation. The car will be finished and on the road this summer, I should get some updated photos up. I've been working on it most weekends over the last few months. However, I'm in need of a recommendation. While all the new upholstry is in the car and look swell, the door seals are proving to be a bitch and won't stay in place.

Any secrets out there to make these sucker stick like they're a part of the car? I've been using 3M spray adhesive but it's not good to keep these on.

NCS on central has some good double sided 3m stuff. not sure if that would work but, it holds trim moldings on MK3s
