Hey, guys...just wanted to post some "before" pictures of the interior of the Celi I just bought so that when I get it all reopholstered we can all compare the difference biggrin.gif

also...I'm posting some close-ups of the broken driver seat hinge. If anyone knows how on earth to fix that, or where I can start looking to fix it, please let me know. Otherwise, I'm just going to buy a new seat.

Thanks! smile.gif

My guess with the seat is that the guy was probably making people squeeze into the back of the car without getting out and pulling the seat up. He also had kids, maybe they hung on it or something....

For the rest of the car, I can't tell you. I can tell you that this island is INSANELY hot, and maybe the heat did some work. The kids may not have improved the situation, either. The guy was using it as a family car for a while, and you know what that can do to any vehicle...

The car was in an accident so both airbags did go off....but it looks like they've been replaced and the steering wheel cover just wasn't replaced, too. I don't know, I haven't had a chance to really look the whole thing over yet.

Exterior pics can be found here:

not too bad, but not perfect. I'm glad that I'm selling my other car so I have some money to do some work smile.gif
