My first car was a 1984 Ram 318 RCSB. Dad and I rebuilt that engine and turned it into a quarter mile riot. I'm very fond of and familiar with that engine.Very nice, I owned a 99 w/ the 318 and loved it.
Dyed one of the turbo coupe seats, just to see how it would turn out. I like it, I used the Dupli Color Vinyl & Fabric paint, my only complaint is it leave it feeling sort of.. crunchy?

That looks really good. I have a set of the same seats that I got out of a Cougar that I need to change from the dark blue to the regatta blue to match the interior of my LTD. What kind of prep did you have to do? Does the crunchy feeling subside over time?Dyed one of the turbo coupe seats, just to see how it would turn out.

I vacuumed the seats, then scrubbed the sh*t out of them with some upholstery cleaner, and let it dry out. I’m not sure if the crunchy feeling will subside, only time will tell.That looks really good.

Modern snow tires really are impressive. I had a set of Blizzaks on an AWD Subaru SVX years ago, and it was actually annoying that I couldn’t slide the thing around and have fun in a few inches of snow! You would turn the wheel left and nail the gas, and the damn thing would just turn left. No donuts, no sliding, no drama whatsoever.Driving home in freezing rain....

Snow tires and heated sideview mirrors are amazing; I'm surprised the wipers worked as well as they did with the 1/2" of rime that built up on them.
I live about 2 -1/2 hours south of Warner Robbins and my original E9 is gone from door handles up. I can't let Macco screw it up even though it is less tan half of what a real shop wanted (6k). I found a hood and deck at pick a part for cheap so I'm gonna rattle can the top and see how it looks. I am the cheapest bastard.I believe that is OEM Laser Red. I can't say if it's a re-shoot or not.
