I bought it! And drove it five hours home from Washington hoping it would make it. Now the real work begains

I added some cup holders and a USB power port for the 2nd row. The cup holders fold up out of the way and can easily hold the smallest or even the largest water bottles.

Since you're in Houston, I'd search for an old school audio shop that specializes in restorations of vintage audio equipment (home and auto). You're bound to have at least a few to choose from. Sorry that I don't have any specific shop to recommend to you.
Check out Bico stereo in tomball
 
Took a drive through thoroughbred country today to pick up an old elk mount that was on a friend’s farm and move it to the HQ of a charity I am involved in, and turned 262k (couldn’t get rollover pic). Beautiful day in the Bluegrass. Also dropped her off to have rear main seal replaced, and hope that sorts her out mechanically for a while and stops my bad leak.

Can't go back driving it regular NA once you go boost😉.
The only thing in my garage and driveway without a turbo is my 80 series….for now. 😉
 

s, I had an 03 WRX and that was a blast to drive even more after all the modifications. Then I got an Crosstrek 🤮 so disappointed by it.

Had an outback xt, fun to drive until the exhaust or intake valve crack caused by the turbo @ 110k miles, had to rebuild the engine. My Mercedes turbo diesel seems to be more reliable, going strong at 140k so far. Nothing beats our 80s in terms of reliability.

At one point, I had 3 cars and 5 turbos...my wife's Mini Cubman All4 single turbo, my daily Ford Explorer Sport twin turbo v6, and my fun Audi RS6 twin turbo v8. Culled the heard a bit and now just one turbo (for now) on my wife's Mini...my current daily is a 5th gen 4Runner & my fun one is the 80. Doing the trans first on the 80 before I go whole hog with boost too!
