Because of sanctions, the currency exchange rate fluctuates significantly. But the life of an ordinary Russian citizen like me (not an oligarch, oil magnate, or other "elite") doesn't depend on foreign currency. We have our own primary raw materials. Fuel prices and availability are stable, but I'm talking about Siberia. There are some minor glitches in Western Russia, but they were already fixed within a week.

Thanks, but I did the trunk lining a little crooked. It was the first part, and it's my first time doing it.
Now I'll start working on the right side, and I'll have some left over to redo the rear left trunk.
I wanted to point out that the almost 30-year-old velour, considering the van has been used harshly for the last 10 years, has held up beautifully; it's very thick and dense. I washed the old velour, cleaned it, and put it away, but I don't know why.
I'm actually currently working on taking the van out of the truck category and making it a comfortable van again.

I made a deal with my wife: I'm building her a workshop (she does ceramics), and I can buy any old-school JDM instead. I hope everything works out.
