The teardown stage... the car is pretty much stripped. Ready for the core support replacement and then lots and lots of sanding the nasty paint off of it.

Man! I have to say that's a lot of work. Truly an excellent undertaking.

It's definitely a big undertaking, but '86 DPS cars are so few and far between I couldn't let it keep living such a rough life. She's going to be a pampered princess now!

DPS progress continues. Engine bay is stripped, little prep left to go before the reshoot. Core support is replaced, no more bent up support! And one of the hole for a lightbar at some point (discussed in the other thread). She's coming along, and I think I might have found a nice blue interior for her!

Ok, no go on the nice blue interior. If anyone knows of a -MINT- blue '86 coupe interior for sale somewhere, please let me know! I'm in desperate need of one!

The DPS car is inching closer! Pretty soon she will be wearing a tuxedo scheme!
