Fortunately, I think we're just about out of "Awesome" with discoveries on this car. Decrapification is on track for completion in a pretty short span if not tonight, and then the long and expensive Restoration phase begins. We have a few little things for the interior on order through eBay, but are in pretty dire need of a number of other components. I've attached a link to the parts we need in my sig, and jedijeff123 has been great enough to offer us a shot at anything we need from a parts car he's hoping to get his hands on soon. Since there's no ETA on that, we're still on the market for anything on that list.

EDIT: Of course, for some reason my signature shows up in all my older posts, but not this one despite having my user settings all telling me it should display and be included.

Guy was just trying to save some money by applying the sound dampening directly to the speaker instead of the rest of the car.

Sig only shows up in the first post that you have on each page. I could probably give you my parts guy's contact info; he has 2 running z32s and 2 parts cars. He might have some stuff. Pm me if you're interested. He's in Bakersfield, CA.

Yours apparently. :rolleyes:

Anyone who junks a Z32 that is not beyond repair should be kicked in the junk with steel toed boots. They don't make these cars anymore, what the OP is doing by saving this poor soul is a great thing.

ure? really? :gotme

Some people put the tweeters in the vents as a stealth location. You're not supposed to foam the entire vent up, but apparently the PO thought it would be a good idea.
