I think there's been too many fuel pump's in and out of Vicky. I'll hit just the right bump, just so, and my gas gauge jumps up or down and gets stuck there.

My dealer managed to find a new fuel tank float separately. Saved me from having to get a whole new sending unit assembly. He said the amount of time it took to get in he suspects it came from Japan. Hopefully these aren't going NLA anytime soon.

I realized I may not need to crack open my engine just yet. Why bother taking it apart and have her just sit there while I collect more parts, so I put 6 months insurance on her. Might as well enjoy the car over the summer while collecting engine parts.

Something that only dawned on me just now: I've always had a piece of anti-slip mat in that little platform/space between the shifter and the ashtray. I tend to use it and didn't want to scratch it up too much. I lost it re-doing the interior. I wanted to try and find some in blue this time, but surprisingly couldn't, really. So I bought a roll in black.


I then realized/remembered I also have swatches of leftover denim as well! So...

Made a cut-out to size in paper, cut down a piece of each to match, clear contact cemented them together...




Dowsed it in some leftover clear coat/scotch guard...



And voila.

Oh ya, always wanted one of these too...



Overpriced for what they are in my opinion, but one-and-done I guess...

Phase 1 flashback: Why didn't I think of it before? :P
Added denim to the gaps of some of the pieces of the trunk. All blue now!

Phase 1 Flashback:

Had some time and also "dynamat'd" the doors. Used stuff called Rockville technically.



Only have a photo of the passenger door. I didn't wanna spray coating in there in case my window would get sticky and jam up...
