I’m so happy I have a few days off as I finally have some free time to go look at some of my favorite BB Threads.

Your car is turning out absolutely incredible. There are so many incredibly cool ideas in this car and the interior has just stepped up the game even more.

Simple put this car is “Awesome” !!!!!

Expanded PVC...many of the interior shops are using it now and getting away from wood materials that don't age well and are heavy.

Thank you...exciting to see it come together. Can't wait to see the car finished with the flush glass installed.

Maybe I missed it, but are these 3D printed?

Nice! Dutchboys showed me a few interior parts they 3D printed. Pretty impressive what can be done.

3D scanners/printers are a game changer for sure.

cjfirstgen 01-08-2021 08:55 AM

Full interior should be complete in the next few days....more to come.

What is your console made out of? Wood, fiberglass, metal, etc?

1/2" mostly. Some are layered and bonded 1/8" and 1/4" then routed for the desired shape.

cjfirstgen 01-19-2021 07:39 PM

Almost there

Can you provide provide more info on the belts your using, in particular I'm looking to see what is holding up the extra shoulder belt material on the harness bar

The part you are inquiring about. Pretty slick pieces.

Thank you for the compliments! Ben Hermance and Distinct Customs interiors really took my vision and delivered.

Car is back in my garage for a couple weeks before heading back to the shop for the flush glass install, final cut and buff and a few punch list items. A couple additions left too....different wheels and a splitter and diffuser.

Will get some better pics but Ipad mini in place for lighting, door locks, windows and a/c control.

Forgeline AL305's, 19x12, 18x10. Centers will be custom painted like the ZX3's. Will keep the 18's ZX3's for track duty and the more aggressive BFG Rivals.

This turned out sick! Where is the rear view mirror from? Or is that a custom piece?

Hey brother, I can not even begin to craft a grouping of words that does adequate justice to your build. All I can say is this is certainly goals!

Curious, what made you choose Jupiter red over carmine? I am about to paint my Foxbody and have been going back and forth between the red on Stielow's Hellfire and Carmine... so I'm interested in your insight.

Thanks in advance
Jesse

Absolutely incredible build... can’t wait to hear more clips of that SB4. I’ve drooled over that motor ever since Mercury Racing released it, and thought it would make a perfect crate engine for a pro-touring car. It’s going to be awesome... huge effort to incorporate it into the car, but will be worth it. Couldn’t justify it in my build, so went for the Mamo-massaged LS7 route instead....

Love what you’ve done with the interior, too... stunning combination. Congrats!

Brian
