Great job Tony. You’ve done a fantastic job on this thing, and it’s really cool to have seen you do it all yourself. It’s fun venturing off and learning new skills.

Question, how much space is behind the dash where you have your harnesses coming out? I wanted to do that with mine and never got around to it.

With my heater core out along with some of the duct trimmed out there is enough room for 3 harnesses lol. Plenty of room on mine. On your sn might be a tight squeeze. Especially if keeping heater and AC

That's gotta be a great feeling to have it fire up smoothly after all that work. Great job man, I don't know the details of what you have left to do but it looks like you're going to have it ready for some car shows this summer

Well it had a few issues at first. The horn was stuck blowing the second I hooked a battery up lol. Had a plug switched, Had a ground that wasn't properly grounded so I couldn't get the fuel pump to kick on, forgot to tighten the harmonic balancer bolts so it make all kindsa noise that the camera didn't quite pick up here haha. But yea man I hope to have the interior and exterior done asap.

Ditched the Gt bumper for what I consider a more cleaner looking LX bumper...the fog lights paired with the turn signals and the four headlights were just too busy for me personally. I'm going to like this front bumper.

I think the 93 cobra spoiler will look great too!!

Got my door and hatch jambs primered, based and cleared. Also rebuilt my door panel. Still need to finish the passenger one.

Fiberglassed the armrest/pull. Base coat and cleared it. Came it perfect!

Ditched the factory warped crap board and carpet. Replaced with new mdf with moisture barrier on one side. Then cut another piece using the carpet as a templet...and actually wrapped it with black vinyl.

Panel was looking pretty shabby

Huge improvement on the door panels. I really like the way the armrest turned out.

Great work Tony!

Watching your build has inspired me to take my '93 up another "notch" in quality instead of the normal just slapping parts on.
The only problem is that it's going to take some of the time away from my Cobra now.
