I sure did, it wasn't as bad as we all thought. Just needed a really good cleaning, and she still needs a lot more TLC as soon as time and money allows it.

Here are the two of them together!
I still want to get wheels for the sedan, do some audio, and do a few other touch ups (fix paint chips, fix the worn out spots on the seats, etc)
And as for the RL, I want to get her looking like she was when she was back on the showroom floor before I start any other modding. Shouldn't be to much work. Oh, and the S/C wasn't bad, it was the sensor.

thanks man! im super excited. Ive had her about 3 weeks now, and thankfully my hours at work are picking up due to A LOT of people quitting. So even though I wont be working on her for a few weeks, I can save up some money to get the seats fixed and get the bumpers repainted.

all the seats have cigarette burn holes in em, and that's the driver seat. looks like someone tried cutting a square out of the back seat, so I want all of that fixed. and that's not even the worst part of the front bumper. I may just save up and have the car repainted completely, the guy I got it from used plasti-dip to go over and faded areas. Its been hell trying to get it off.

Have you tried a pressure washer to get the plasti dip off? I don't know if that would work, but am just speculating. It's easy to do that with someone elses car!

im seeing it this way, the car was abused. so yes, I have A LOT of work cut out, but at the same time, replacing/fixing just about everything, I can do it the way I want from the start of ownership. I need to take care of the important things, which I have been as money allows, then I can start on doing what I want. I have just about everything picked out that I want. It is gonna be a long, fun, process. But I gave myself a deadline, I AT LEAST want her back to show room look by May 2015. She is not a daily drive, which makes it easier also. And at the same time, I am not done with my sedan either. It is definitely going to be fun both ways growing and learning with them.
