Love your car, hope you can make yourself some space to enjoy your car more often. In my experience the more you drive them the better they are (no failures)
Really gorgeous!

It's like having an old friend back. Puts a smile on my face every time I take it out for a spin...
I think you need a set back on your 86 Capri to finish the look
I think they look great on your car!
Thanks - I didn't put as many miles on the vert this year, but I plan on changing that for 2016.
Thank you - I did put quite a few miles on it this summer. Now that it's back on the road after all these years, I plan on using as much as possible.

I ended up taking the pass side seat back to Mass to finish:
During the process I realized that TMI incorrectly packed one of the bolster foams incorrectly. Called NPD and they worked directly with TMI to get the correct part sent out. Delayed the process about a week, but I wasn't under the gun so no big deal. Kudos to both NPD and TMI for excellent customer service.
Here is a quick tip to installing seat covers, use a plastic disposable shopping bag to get the cover to slip over the foam.
Nice Joe. I really have to finish the ones I started forever ago.

Boy that looks great Joe. Really changes the interior, huh?
The Recaros look MUCH BETTER! Although I might disagree in them being beat up! I have two sets that look MUCH Worse than yours!
Seats turned out great! Which I was much further along on my projects to consider interior work! Oh well, I am finally back home after almost 9 weeks on the road so maybe I can get something done.
Keep up the good work!

Definitely one car I would like to have one day! Pace Cars seem very scarce up where I am even though as the years go by there are less and less around. Alas it will not happen in my lifetime I think. I guess I need to get my 82 GT running to satisfy me!
Looking good Joe. Was it ever your plan to add the decals back or leave as is?
I'd love to find a decent one also. I have seen some listed for sale, but they were so far gone it would take more work than they are worth to save. I'd prefer to find a really good survivor or a decent resto one that doesn't need a ton of work and money. Of course a v8 manual is the top choice since I'm dreaming.
Even though I’ve done a few cars in my time, I was surprised by the level of effort mine took. Between the unique parts and replacing almost everything, I’ll be very selective on my next four eye.
