just took out all of the interior, but i can't get one of the door panels off. the driver's side door panel was already off, but i can't get off the passenger's side because i can't figure out how to take off the door handle and window crank. i know that there is a clip holding these on, but i can't reach the clip on the back side of the handles.

the back seat top was a pain to get out. i think i killed about 15 common spiders while i was in there and a family of roaches too. exciting!!

the floor is in great shap on this car, most of the undercoating is still there, but from banging around on it it seems solid. the only problem is that little plate that covers the whole on the drivers side floor board.

i also hooked up my battery to my truck to it and the lights turned on, but it wouldn't crank over. it did nothing. then i started to smell some burning, so i took it of the battery quickly and made sure to watch for a fire. that would have sucked!!

next i will vacuum out the inside and try to get the rest of the interior out.

i will post pictures soon.
