Nothing realy new, Just painted the woodgrain.
Besides the usual bonnies, rivi console, overhead blazer, leds.
Im trying to figure out how to re create a blackout instrument cluster.
Appears black until I turn the car on, and shines threw.
( I belive Im going to have to use a ribbon LED strp, and use tint or either nightshade on the clear lense.)
Working under the hood, Lots of work
but thats another story

I got a pretty decent extra set of door panels ready for leather just looking for the dash board. im going to buy a few of the polished pieces from street trents to give the interior a lil more dept to go with the navy blue leather billet steering wheel

I've got a 93, but its just sitting at the moment. It needs a frame off to be done right, or a front suspension rebuild to get it going decently.
My 92 isnt worth doing much to, frame and body is rusted bad.
I like the TBI cars. The motors are easy to work on and parts are old school cheap!

I have a 93 RMW with a 92 police 350 with a edelbrock performer rpm intake ,yes it is a 4bbl carb intake with a transdapt 4bbl to TBI adapter for a mercruiser marine 350
I also went with a new take out ramjet 350 roller cam,i have 69 camaro headers and flowmaster true duals with no cats. and my wagon will fly. around the 350hp range..and i moved the air intake temp. sensor from the air cleaner to the pass. fender well (where there is no engine heat) and i am getting 28 miles per gallon on the interstate at 80mph
You can mod TBI'S not bad for a $400 beater with 183,000 miles and i fresh motor
