The interior panels were originally a lighter dove gray, the tan areas are where they faded over time, maybe sunlight..not to sure, kinda weird how gray fades to tan.

Wow thats coming along niceley... a lot better than mine. I love the interior combo as well. my interior is the same color, but has started to fade a little bit. Ive been looking across tacoma for some decent interior pieces as well.

Nice project:biggrin: I just moved back down here from MI... I lived in Bradenton near the airport a few year ago... I`m in Venice now... maybe we could meet up sometime? I have family in Sarasota and Ill be there quite a bit. Nice to see another B4B TR around here... I`v seen nothing but ricers here and a few exotics... only a few muscle guys around here

Well FL is nice(aside from all the fart cans and wings) I`m working on the car, but not turboing it just yet... need more cash Why what`s wrong with your hot side?

Oh ok... the one you have wont work? You can take it to a shop and have them make you some piping and fittings for it... but if your like me, cash is tight

The turbo hot side he has is to large. To make it work right you need to have one from an 86-87 to spool it up better.:biggrin:

Dash Bezel restored

Got around to restoring the dash bezel.
Not to bad for a bit of testors 1133 light brown and a 2446 silver paint marker.
Total investment $6, probably the cheapest repair I'll ever make !

 

[mat231v6]

wow your good at restoring stuff.

 

[jdpolzin]

Wow, that looks new!!!!

 

[83turbomon]

you should make this a sticky.... thats real good work. You should go into more detail on how you restored that bezel. ive got about 3 right now that need massive fixing.

WOW that looks great! I think I might try touching up my original cluster bezel and see how it turns out. I think I can handle being out 6 bucks I haven't seen a bezel as nice as yours in that style since I had my 79 TR.
