[QUOTE="chasingomas, post: 1587253, member: 31094"] Seat "finished", bracket painted, both in the car and bolted in. Feeling good about the progress. Next up is replacing the cabin wiring harness because the last dude fucked it up, and it's a huge quality of life thing for me. I also finalized the color scheme for the interior. Going for a "beach at dawn" vibe. I'm probably going to reupholster the seat....again; the deep mauve color, keeping the croc/snakeskin faux leather. It's going to have a some added graphics here and there, but this is the base it'll be based on. In a week or two, I'll finish stripping the paint off the rest of the rear of the cabin and the trunk area, and start sanding. I was thinking 80/120/180 to get a nice finish, but not overly stress it. Then primer coat, and putting down the lace, then paint. Excitement levels kind of wavered with mental health, but I'm starting to see everything sort of starting to take shape, and the motivation is back again. The car is so fucking fun to drive, the state it's in and little quality of life stuff makes me not always overly excited to get into the car. I just realized I should probably do the roof and A and B pillars first, as paint thinner and flakes will drop, so I'll figure that out too. [/QUOTE]
