Default A few pics of my '88 Cabrio...

I entered my car in the annual Eurofest in Ridgeland, MS yesterday and took a few pics. I did not expect to win anything, but had a great time meeting people and seeing many cool cars and motorcycles.

I will be installing the suspension this week and the Wevo SSK as well. The new top will go on during the winter.

Thanks! I think close to 12,000 showed up for the event. Factor in the fact there were three huge SEC football games that day, that is pretty good. Mike Marsh is the person that hosted the event and they have two more coming up - one in Louisiana and one in Texas. http://www.euro-fest.net/

Michael the car looked great this past weekend. You actually made me miss it. I'm glad I had a Turbo CAB to drive back home!!
Let me know when the 15' GT3 is delivered, you owe me that ride!

The aluminum details look great. Tell me about the dead pedal. Was it difficult to install in order to make it look straight? Is there enough space to the clutch? Great looking car!

Thanks!

All of the aluminum goodies were ordered from Rennline. I do have a Wevo brushed aluminum shifter going in this week which will help balance things out from an aesthetic standpoint. The functionality should be much better since I am tired of rowing the shifter!

The dead pedal was very easy to install - only two screws that attach to the wheel well arch. The friction of the carpet also helps keep it in place. There are about 6 different holes you can choose to mount the dead pedal. The dead pedal is fabricated spot on which makes the installation cleaner and looks aligned when done - just eyeballing it will do the trick. Yes, there is enough space to the clutch because you are really not adding much thickness, and also that it butts up tightly to the carpet.

Thanks guys! I added some pics in another thread with the new Wevo shifter and hand brake accent installed. It really makes the aluminum blend in better throughout the car.
