Pretty pictures say more than I can.......


By the way guys ---- if you like what you're seeing -- progress..... quality.... speed of work.... These guys are so good that I've really pretty much just let them have their way with this build. Mike Kaiser (EX Pinkee's.... LOL) calls or emails -- we discuss "X" -- he is given "guidance" -- and then they present and I either nix or roll with it. I don't think I've nixed or had them do a single thing over (design wise).

The color scheme is "them" -- the interior is all in house as is the paint..... and I'm just absolutely LOVING THIS SHOP!

Thanks Charley. There. I said it in person.

I'm not showing all the stuff we're doing on this little daily driver --- but a pet peeve is the crappy plastic A/C vents.....

It really is a "choice" that is either super ordinary -- Like Torq Thrust II's -- or you try to hide them -- or ?? there's nothing wrong with them -- but I wanted something that looked like it belonged and yet was still a bit custom.

This - for me - goes back many years, to my Nomad. I searched forever and finally found NOS A/C vents.... rather than just go the easy route and pop in the usual aftermarket vent.


BTW --- Sometimes I feel like our poor POTUS -- and I say things without a full explanation.....

Photos say 1000 words??? Here's what I'm talking about...... I replaced these wonderful plastic vents with FACTORY vents....
