Strip interior and install Konis

Moved from the engine cooling to the interior and stripped most of the carpet, under-layment and sound deadening material. That under-layment is nasty stuff and the glue Porsche used is really troublesome. I'll have to spend a lot of time with Goof-Off wiping that stuff up. I'm glad I did the floor pans as there's some corrosion. Noted that the front pan appears to be two layers. After I get a the glue gone, I'll wire brush, marine clean, metal prep and then POR 15 the whole pan.

Then the lovely wife ordered some Koni inserts for the front struts as an anniversary gift. The inserts that were in the struts - completely shot. This probably the fourth Porsche I've done this to and it's always a huge improvement.
