Cruiser Rehab - Phase II

[Brentbba]

Dropped the beast off at an auto upholstery shop this morning to have Shane's leather installed on the front/middle row seats, armrests and center console. Passing on the leather inserts in the door panels. That would have been another day's labor. May get her home and see how difficult it is with instructions here to remove those myself and just take the panels in.

Worthless w/o pics, but it'll be done in a couple of days and I'll shoot some pics then!

Wow, this along with the motor work and you going out on trips? Im starting to wonder about you Brent.. did the Golf Course get a restraining order from you?

Well, the first set of OEM leather lasted 16 years, and it's really the driver and front passenger that really show wear. Middle row has some age from kids and boy scouts but it's not bad for it's age. This set probably WILL outlive me tho!

Nope - golfing as much as I can. Proceeds from the sale of the Miata have funded the engine and leather.

Trips...we'll see. Was going to opt out of the SoCal Desert Rendezvous and Expedition Expo to save enough for gas to/from Moab, but checked today and registration for Cruise Moab is closed! First year of my working life I can take the first week of the month off and I'm too late. On the waitlist, so we'll see. Only one trip this year to Mojave so far!

Can't wait to see it completed. How much did it set you back?

Old pricing from Shane - $930 for the leather and $650 for install here in ultraexpensive Orange County.
