Thx!!!!
 On first sight they will need some adjustments! I'll try to make notes of it all when I get to that part and maybe I can write a DIY  But that'll probably be something I'll do once she's finished (in 6-12 months from now?)

Time for an update:
Continued adapting the GP kit in orde to make it all fit, will require some more adjustments  It seems like a wide wheel will be needed  Eating some JDM food while cleaning the garage!  Valve cover also needed some attention, my god what a mess!  Seeing this made me wonder how it's possible that an engine with this much dirt still ran, seems like it's not a waste of time cleaning this out.  After clean up it got a good sand blast and powder coat.  Which made the engine look even more like ... well an engine  Close up of the wrinkle effect  Disassembled the front lights  And powder coated the frame in high gloss black (actually used for Harley bikes, bling bling ) Next I attacked the rust on the window frame  Which went without a hassle, will be getting some putty to flatten it all  Subframe had to go in orde to give me some room for the next rust job  We have a lift off!  It seems like the previous owner has already touched this part of the car too.. unfortunately!  As it seems he had juist welded another plate on top of the original rust hole, which has made it all worse over time. People like this should just not touch a car    Better get rid of all the rust ..  .. so I can start from a clean base!   Has been a good month progress-wise, then again I try to work on it 3-4 times a week (sometimes even until 1-2 o' clock at night). Since my girlfriend has to work this week and I took a week off I hope I can make some extra progress!  Also collected some spare S12 parts (from several owners/cars): - Spare blue interior (everything starting from the back seat with panels included) - Spare rear lights - 5 front indicators, mine are broken - new engine to open front light - rear subframe with diff, brakes and suspension .. you never know :P - Front grill - Front suspension with brakes included, I'll be using these to create my own coil-overs - some other various bits and pieces So actually I got like half an S12 in spare parts, that'll keep mine alive! Gooooood

Did some epic hours previous 2 days, with this as a result:
Fixed part 1  Closed it so the interior looks good again   Better than what it used to look like  Closed the rear of the sill, added some sealer and paint (don't mind the color, just needs some paint so it doesn't start rusting soon)  In goes the exterior part of the sill   Do I really have to do it all over again on the other side
