Yep, Ian...You are correct. Sanford/Lake Mary/Heathrow...All right there together. Sorry for the long drive when you come to pick up my car for its trip to wonderland (Driven Concepts) in Tampa, but it will be worth the drive...

The ARP Wheel studs came in...I am only waiting for the rear Hub Centric Spacers to come in so that I can complete the install of the Big Brakes.

Got the Loom sent out to Dr. Tweak to renew and check for any anomalies or issues and to repair if so. He is shipping it and the plug-n-play harness back to me next week.

I have to port the upper intake, polish and chrome it, should be done next week. I am powdercoating nsome various bolts and engine pieces to dress up the engine. Again, should get them back late next week.

Once these parts are in, I will ship my car out to Driven Concepts in Tampa for their custom work. Can't wait.

Doing a lot of interior work next weekend...I will be posting up pics when complete. The interior is getting a swap to a full black conversion, real black, not dyed, and it will have some custom pieces inside as well.

I will be installing the DEFI gauges, and looking to move the AEM AFR Gauge.

Lots of work....

Well: We spent the whole weekend stripping 2 SC's, and putting the interior back into my project car...Yeah, I found a Black on Black 2000 SC300, wrecked so I bought the whole car. I am parting it out, and will have several parts to list in a separate thread. I will also be parting out my very clean Tan interior.

Here is a pic of my 2000 front bumper on my car:


Here is the repair I did to the gaping whole that was cut into my engine bay for the Intercooler intake tube, this is far stronger and cleaner:


Here is a pic of the painted engine bay:


Here is a pic of the carpet going into the car. I shampooed and vacuumed the carpet. It looked brand new:


More to come, and thanks to Scott Gray!!! The black interior is very clean and in practically new condition.
