[QUOTE="fshanda, post: 5946207, member: 587331"] Your right about the car, It drives well, actually very comfortable and has a smooth ride. It is a generic looking body and interior. The oscillating front a/c / heating vents crack me up. Next thing is a little body work and some paint. This Mazda has the problem with the f-ed up paint and clearcoat. Looks like someone poured paint remover all over it. Im also going to mess around with an amp rack/mount for the alpine and tuck it away in the spot on the right side where its sitting. I just have it mounted there because it was easy and we were impatient. Putting them in the kicks is probably the only place you could get away with pods in an old Mustang. Cutting into the doors just wouldnt be right in a classic like that. Kick pods can always be removed. Glassin is pretty simple but can be a bit pricey when you first start. Your probably looking at at least 100 dollars for the resin, matt, body filler, primer, spot putty and paint.
