Just got back from Two weeks in Singapore for work.  Got the a new accelerator pad kit in the mail, so put everything together this morning.  One more piece done and ready.

Have been picking away at the remaining interior items, and it is now pretty much stripped out.  Got a good look at the floorplans.  Rear seat foot wells have a number of pinholes and will probably need to be replaced.

Still working on the Cuda!  Just have been too lazy to post.  Blasted and painted the Jack.
