my wife bought me this for my birthday present....
it had been subject to a interior fire.
the po was welding a very small hole in the drivers foot well.. and a spark
must have caught the dash insulation...
and up it went...
every seat.. the door cards, roof lining steering wheel,
dash wiring, speedo etc were toast.

now mot,ed
on the road .... :D
not to everyone's liking maybe... but its mine :wink:
what do you guys think?????[frame]Image[/frame][frame]Image[/frame][frame]Image[/frame]

Looks nice and comfy.
What have you done about the insides of the doors and all the other places where the paint etc will have gone?

the doors were not burnt inside just round the door cards
and door rubbers, had to change the door tops though...
