Interior update.

Well So far everything worked out perfect. Dug out all the old seals added solid mig weld to the floors and all body seams I could get to. Installed all new trim and dash. Now the car does look sick with the factory 260 steering wheel. How ever the seats where a tottal *****. I used my zx tracks maintained the 14 1/2 bolt pattern of the tracks. Well they ended up shoved against the doors and WAY low to the floor. But they do look sick in the car. Thinking of makeing brackets to raise the seats as well as add adjustment to make them right. Or has anyone had they're seats re-done and was it worth it?

Yea sorry haven't had the time to up load anything nor take pictures. I honestly thought it would be easy to swap tracks and throw them in. Took me 2 hours to try and unbolt the 260 seat track. Only way they got the nut tight. Had to be prior to the cushion being put on!! Ended up putting the drivers zx seat back in. Since I felt pinned to the door. One shocking thing not only does the 260 steering wheel bolt right on. The trim from the ZX is perfect fits like a glove. "Side note" My dad liked to squish the wheel and fiddle with it in traffic so my factory wheel was down to steel up on top. So were doing this on the cheap since our 260 has lost its frame. We are useing all its parts. Ill take some pics in the morning.
