wanna do heaps more to it, such as, retrim the entire dash in leather, BF GTP seats front and BF GTP front seats in the rear, so it will be a 4 seater(at some stage), wanna do original color pinstripes on it(which i may have before the show), and wanna get a set of 20's for it too, but my gf told me no more spending money on the car, wanna put more money into our house, plus shes always cracking the shits that it just sits in the garage and i never take it out, or im always pulling it apart to fix something
