Project '95 Restoration

[eacyde]

I thought I would start a thread of my interior swap progress.
I have 3 SHO's, All of them are good running.
A Green 95 MTX with Full Leather Mocha Interior as my daily

A Green 93 MTX with Full Leather Black Interior as the donor

A Silver 93 ATX R.I.P with Full leather Grey Interior

My plan is to remove the Mocha interior and replace it with the black interior and possibly mix in some pieces of the grey for accent.

Here is what 3 hours and and a few busted knuckles got last nite

Once the Mocha Interior is out I will post in the classified section as well as all the other part that will be for sale

 

[SHOdded]

Looking forward to pics of your interior build!

Is that a Mocha engine bay treatment, or just a very dusty engine compartment?

That is just after I picked up the car. It sat in a dirt storage yard for 4 years. The car was very dusty inside And out.

Go straight black, don't mix and match.

Actually, black and mocha look pretty good. SHOContinental has this done in his 93 ATX.

The front black seats are a bit weathered. I am going to try to restore them back to like new, but if that doesn't work, My grey seats are mint.

Here is the Mocha Interior that is coming out. The steering wheel is discolored and the seats have a few rips and tears.

I changed the title to Project '95 Restoration instead of starting a bunch of threads.

My fish tanks were pretty weathered so I restored them using various grits of sand paper and a lot of elbow grease.

Wish I could find one in the junk yard.I could use some of those interior parts when you do put them up for sale.but I need some plastic parts off the seat and passenger air vent so dont know if you would separate those

 

[eacyde]

Does anybody know how to remove the lock cylinder on the glove box? The service manual is vague in its description.

I need to swap it out so it matches the key for the truck.

I'd like to keep the seats whole.

Are you in need of the Mocha vent? I could part with that.

I swapped in my new headlights today. I bought Sable units from Ebay. I am not 100% happy with passenger side fish tank fit. I hat to grind the housing to make it sit better. there was a 3/8" gap before I did it.

I have been looking for a mocha vent for a while if no one asked for it yet giay da nam.

I assume you are converting this to run on household current at the same time? Pretty nice fit on the new headlights.

 

[jd4242]

Good job on the lights.I need to do that bad.

Block heater. They are soooooo nice to have.

 

[SHOdded]

Yes they are! And I was kidding Imagine though, someone converting this to a hybrid-powered vehicle with the SHO engine being the itsy bitsy starter motor ...
