Slowly blacking out the headliner. Long way to go. Black leather visors, lights and handles.

Why the black headliner?

This in due time. Leather dash when the blower motor goes! Lol
Why the black headliner?
I have some rattles in the roof and will be popping a new tailgate in probably after this winter so the headliner will be coming out. The fabric is sagging a little here and there after getting it cleaned.

Looks like a lovely family vacation. Did you keep track of mpg's going out?
Just on the computer. 19.6 mpg. Hopefully the roof rack is holding the number down. I'll get the calculator out for the way back.

Mike did the rear brake lines. They were bad! We also put in 14" rear braided lines so there was some slack on the line when you jacked up the car.
The DMTL light seems to be off for good now. Had to swap some wires on the pump wiring.
Next up is some rust repair on a jacking point & Dinan rear diff reinforcement!
@DrLeadFoot
-
All engine lights are off! Running great.
Have an appointment to get the jacking point fixed due to rust on Tuesday.
Also have a right rear speed sensor waiting to be installed.
Body and interior are next! Priorities are to stop the rust and fix the sunroof rattles.

Structure Fabrication cut out the rot/rust on my passenger rear jacking point and rebuilt/over built it back up looking as close to stock as possible. Rust proofed it all. Pretty big job as they had to pull the gas tank. They found some old bondo from a hack job fix from years and years ago. Glad they got in there to cut out the cancer!
They also popped on my new snow tires on the "new" wheels! 245/18/40 Blizzaks on some 6 series wheels. Not sure which style code they are. 18 x 8.5 et14 if I remember correctly.
