I like OEM...but the sound system is all there...they didnt take much from inside..the Bose OEM HU is still there and works.

Great work so far! That's awesome that you got the lights working, sometimes it's the electrical stuff that can cause the major headaches ( ) rather than some of the mechanical/body work.

hey Thnx for all the support guys...this turned out to be just an amassing project. I know the Z inside out now...to my surprise i didnt even have to buy any special tools or anything. So far ive been able to get by with my limited tools that i had. The only thing i need will be the safety bolt on the drivers air bag which is only like $10 from craftsman.

Car is in running, driving, AC working condition. On Sat i sent it out for paint so next time i see it paint will be done!

Here are a few pics before the tow-truck picked it up.

Dude, based on the first photos, it really looked hopeless! But I gotta say you seem to be doing one hell of a job with it. Keep up the good work.
