Got the passenger side windows and mechanisms removed. What a pain in the ass.
Added the shock tower brace.....mostly so I can mount up the rest of the Sniper and ignition boxes and make sure it all fits.

The window rail area is now painted black. Most of this area is covered by some stainless trim and weather strip. I think the black will look good and blend in with everything. The bottom part of the door jam will be blue.

Inventoried the interior pieces. The original kick panels were falling apart. Luckily had some new ones in the stash. They were blue, so I used the vinyl interior dye paint stuff and made them black. They turned out pretty good.

Today was overcast and not too hot. I cleaned, prepared, and vinyl died the back seat. It turned out pretty good and is way better than the orange.

In between coats, I cleaned up the rear interior panels. Sprayed them with some Armour All and they look pretty good.

Thanks to Jay for making me a plug for this egr port in the intake manifold. Fits great.

Cleaned up the trunk. Painted the hinges and bits black. Then used some trunk splatter paint.....but ran out after 1 coat. Need to get more. I think it's gonna turn out good.

Found more paint locally and gave it a few more coats. I think it turned out pretty good. I like the contrast with the gray fuel tank and black hinges. The trunk lid and trunk jam will all be blue.

Been figuring some things out and more disassemble. I am procrastinating the body work.....but that's gonna end soon.

Only picture worthy item is my solution for the upper radiator hose. I welded a bead at the ends of the tube to help the hose clamps.
