Here is an old pic I found from 1998... It was taken probably a week after I got the tails made, cause thats when I decided to cut out holes in the bumper for the reverse lights... the covers for the reverse lights are from the door courtesy lights.

Here is the front pic from around the same time... still haven't cut the rear bumper to add the corner lips to the front.

I have a vent from the Turbo Ford Falcon on the passenger side above the battery.

Also have JIS fogs... or something like that.

Clear turn signals, and the hood scoop.

And the interior shot.

SAAS Steering wheel with Boss kit.

Some crapy plastic pedals with fake carbon fiber center.
nice floor mat and faded matching seat covers.

Oh and my shifter case is aluminum... I think I was interior/exterior mod crazy back then, all my stuff was custom made out of aluminum. :lol

oh and I removed the carpet from the speaker grills and painted them yellow. I thinks thats the furthest I went with the interior before deciding to go for performance before looks.

I remember seeing pics of that car and saying wow thats a crazy mod!!!!!! I loved the scoop! that was just amazing I though. I saw the pic of Mike's dash with practically nothing on it, just a tach, gauges, seats and a steering wheel, and that ravashing carpet that was on the dash at one point. That is a great car Mike.

Haha... Well Its supposed to get a wire mesh with fiberglass. the carpet is just there to lay out the base for my new dash.

Or I could go all sheet aluminum...

The first posts I made for my lights were on EZboard and I know I posted them again on Automotive forums.
but when I found my old pics I scanned them in and posted them again... since I had the image attatchment ability. I think the image links in my original posts are all dead anyways.

hey this might sound kind of dumb but how do you make the tail lights round like that is it a kit or do you use another set of tail lights and paint them whatever color you want except for what you want to show?? wanting to do the same to my 89
