Sometimes it's the little things...
While the car has been pretty solid, and with more good surprises than bad, the dynomat laid down by the p.o. has been a bear. It sticks like glue, and heating it from above turned the tar part of the dynomat into something resembling crude oil, but stickier, leaving this on the floor...
After some trial and error, we found that heating the backside of the metal works better. You can se the heatgun poking into the passenger side sill, to heat it from the inside out. This turns the tar into a bubble-gum consistancy - kind of like pulling bubble gum off of your shoe:
It is getting better, though, with brake-cleaner, and a charcoal mask, the foam stuff came up from the tunnel finally

Here's what trolling the internet finds you, lightly used, but cheap!

It's nice to have a retired German Engineer as a father - here's the drawing of the second-generation aluminum dash (1st one was in my last car):
So far, we've just formed some brackets and supports for what will be an all-aluminum dash:
The build continues...
