ok heres Crappy Rex. i took out the interior in the rear all behind the seats. TO DO list: in the next few days im gonna try to clean out all the hatch and remove the rest of the interior. then im gonna spray it flat black. then im gonna pick up a new radiator support so the hood hill close all the way. also i need to find a font clip thats already painted white and pick it up or i will have to buy paint. Remove all the a/c bullshiz and drop it a bit.:D its gonna be a fun project.
hood dont close all the way

its sits so high lol

sand it and spray it with galvinized pain( which also works decent as a primer)t... make sure you sand down to bare metal and get rid of all rust.

removing AC wont lose much wight.
if the interior was in good condition, you should have left it in. no need to have stripped interior unless its a race car
