Carpet Ordered
I am but a few minutes away from ordering the Carpet Set.
In other news, today I removed the foam that was underneath the Right Rear Quarter Panel. It was falling apart, and molding, so it just had to go. I am going to see about getting a new piece made up. I expect the piece from the Left to be in the same condition.
Once I can get new foam pieces, I will place them in the car. However it will still be awhile before I actually get some new Rear Quarter Panels ordered. In the meantime, I'm going to mess with the current Quarter panels, and see if I can smack them around into some good condition, and maybe I won't worry about ordering some new ones.

Interior Close to Finish.
Today I finally got the second Rear Seat removed. I also removed the Rear Console for re-spray, and cleaned up the padding. I also may have got ahead of myself, but I took the liberty of removing the Right Rear Quarter Panel. The beast was actually fairly easy to remove. Too bad it is real warped and torn. I might go ahead and get a new set of Rear Quarter Panels, since they are in such bad shape.
New set will cost apprx. $250 for Vinyl- which should do the trick. Before I go into doing this, though, I am going to get the carpet ordered and install it. The new carpet will come at around $500.
Future plans, after the carpet and quarter panels, and all four seats have been replaced, is to take off the door panels and give them a re-spray. Afterwards, the trunk is up, and I already have special plans for it!

Interior Mega Update
Recently I had stripped out the interior, and was heading on re-doing it all. I am getting there, but very gradually. I just got some sound-proofing mats in, which will cover the drivers side floor. Not much, but it's better than nothing, and at a whopping $60.
I resprayed the steering wheel and horn pad, and fixed the Gauge Cluster. I got some new Rear Seats and paddings ordered from a guy from the 928 forums. I will also be ordering a new Carpet Set soon. I still have lots of interior parts to re-spray. Everything fro mthe Door cards, to the Dash, and Pod.
After the new seats are placed in, the carpet placed in, and everything else sprayed over, the interior should be in extremely excellent condition! That will thus, conclude any major charges to my cars for awhile, unless they break down and it becomes a large bill of needed parts, of course.
In time, I will add more and more sound proof padding. Under the rear seats, the roof, the passengers side, under the door cards, and the battery area as well. At this time I will more than likely go ahead and get the Underhood heat Shield as well.
Tons of pictures to come!

Relay Board Reconditioning
It must be done. A hefty long procedure, but well worth it. The 928 is currently down, and will not even turn over. I am going to see if reconditioning the Relay Board will help with any problems. I had purchased a brand new Fuel Pump Relay and it became corroded the first day of use. It appears as though several otehr connectors have become corroded as well, which is why this reconditioning is such a good idea, and will more than likely help. I will begin the project as soon as I get some Stabilant in the mail.
