Thanks everyone! Very happy how well they turned out. Added the nylon pulls today.

Man, nice work! Love the door panels. And the work on the seats...my girl is a Volvo fan and I went to add head rest cushions, she got upset, "that shape is one of the ways I know what it is!" So others will appreciate that touch. Although I still don't like resting my head on those hard ass things lol.

That is awesome she?s into Volvo?s, I wouldn?t know...my ex hated all mine. Now that I think about it, this may have played a part with our divorce...hmmm.

Anyway, went to the JY yesterday and came across a ?92 Red/Charcoal 244 with 111k on the odometer, almost felt wrong picking it. It had the best charcoal interior I?ve ever seen. I didn?t need the front seats however, I eagerly snagged the rear seat for the 242. There isn?t a single cigarette burn, puncture, tear, nothing...

Along with the rear seat, I grabbed the black grill, minty wheel well cover (I never see these, ever) console, all 4 black handle pulls, all of the black trunk accessories, and that mint cibie passenger head light.

Things I didn't grab but may later regret, crack free dash, and panels in remarkable shape.

I have a low psi fuel pump that’ll replace the in-line and I’ll ditch the in-tank with a piece of fuel hose. Closer to get this one back on the road.
