Default Thanks guys!

I didn't want to loose the styling of the dash, but had to package more than stock would allow. I cut the whole center out and started over. The unpainted area is all new and hand build...then butt welded in. Notice there isn't an ash tray and I moved the head unit up for an easier reach. It's all painted now of course, but will be a while before I install all the parts for the final time. Here's a close up of the work area. I'm sure a pro could have gotten more creative, but I'm happy with it!!



I'm thinking the blue on the harnesses will match the body color well! Got to coordinate!!

I'll find some, I know I have some. It did fit well, very pleased with it!

BTW, today I'm starting in on a little project, I'm changing the street rod style 4-bar links over to DSE Swivel Links...should help with any binding I might of had!

Ok, I'll look for those pics now....

Thanks Paul!
I love the seats! Very high quality, they recline using an infinate dial, and flip forward...a must with kids!

I got all my Sparco gear and seat mounts from Jim @ http://www.motorsportseats.com/ He gives all our members a nice discount!

My first trip to SEMA I was on a mission to find a seat for this car...at the end of the week I found my self back where I started, the Sparco booth...go figure! But at least I felt better about the purchase!

Ok, figured it was just easier to take new pics of the AME roll bar. I opted for the bent down bars and I used a Chris Alston swing-out kit on the harness bar. I actually ordered an 8 point roll bar but decided against using the door bars and tubes that install at the rear passenger's feet...this is a family car after all...got to keep it comfy and usable...yeah right!
