You can do it man! It is time consuming though, and be very carefull with the vin# that's by the window. Let someone help you too like cymfc3s said. It's also a mission putting it back. What spray are you using? The Vinyl black paint from Discount auto parts or Autozone?

Take your time- those plastic pieces get brittle with age. I wouldn't

think it's a good idea to paint, but if you want to - Good Luck. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...>/bigthumb.gif

What if u were to rip of all the vinyl,give it a nice coat of fiberglass,

and paint over it . you can have a nice glossy finish, you could even

paint the same colour as the car.

If I were you I would take out the entire heating system at the same time,

just rip it off, gonna save you weight and ****. Just replace the empty

slot with a lcd screen and ur flyn.

taking the dash out isn't that bad, of course I have a rag top so it makes it that much easier, as well as having the windshield out. Gray and or black seem the same, if it has faded I see the means, but the labor involved to do so could be a big ol bite to swallow. If the dash has been armour-alled the adhesion problems you'll run into will more than make you want to bang your head on an inanimate objet repeatedly.

wow i always wondered how my car would look completly stripped down now i know. My car would look like that right now if i had the dash, carpet, and tranny out.

It struck me funny to see that car gutted out yet the steering wheel still in place. I guess I just must be bored right now. Very quiet day, very few patients today. Must be the war or something. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png
