Good work. You going to keep this 1? Lol. Definetly is nice. Looks rust free as well.

[CaymenEGT91]

where the hell are all these caymens comin from???!!! lol

[90prtege]

didnt do fuk all to the egt today somehow yesterday when i was yanking the carpet out i twisted my back didnt even know it till this morning when i got up and OMG DAMN SORE!!!!! maybe tomorrow during work ill get the seats re assembled.

and chris i plan on keeping it but as they say money talks and bull**** walks so if someone wants it bad enough im sure ill let it go!!!! damn things are a dime a dozen. i wish it had no rust but sadly it has the typical rear wheel rot on the fender wells sometime this summer ill cut it out and patch it with some fiber glass who knows

[90prtege]

well i got the interior all back together and if i do say so myself it turned out pretty DAMN good first pic is the before so its right by the cleaned for compare

[monoxidechild]

looks 10 years younger!

on my turbo colt, i ended up taking my presher washer to the carpet. lol. i like your idea on the seat covers. i hadnt even thought of that.

[90prtege]

yea ive done it so many times to different vehicles so now its so easy to do!!!! Ive used the pressure washer before but found in weak spots it yanks all the fibers out of the backing. now i use a commercial cleaner we sell to the fish plants to clean their processing equipment and then just rinse completely with a garden hose works pretty damn good too

[Turpro]

You need to go into the car flipping bizz

[90prtege]

i know.. to bad the wife wont let me says we cant afford it

[Crazypunkerguy]

Very clean car, I like it a lot. Excellent job on the interior!

[riverrunnernky]

Do we need a Cayman EGT Thread??

where the hell are all these caymens comin from???!!! lol

How many of these EGT's were made?
I have 1 also.

Damen nice job Jeff, the carpet is very nice now.

The tear in the seat is norm for those seats where it is. I have 92 EGT Camans in my Protege that are already to be swaped for this spring.
We would deal for sure if not already committed to swap even for his MX-3s.

The Cayman I currently have is my 1st I have worked on some since I've had it, I've had 2 more Caymans since.
1. a 92, I scraped out and another a 91.5 I gave to the man that gave me the car to scrap because he had wanted the year model so badly.

There are minor details that make them different also.
I was given the car for a $ so I gave it to a friend I knew would love it and referb it.

The GT is not the normal escort, it's really fun to drive.
