The interior was done in Italian Leather by Top Notch Interiors of Livonia, Michigan. Ramone Oudeh. He does interiors for Jay Leno, Porsche and Rolls Royce, Concept cars etc. He does exec. work reasonable. We took stock Recaros and stripped them down and modified the frames and sculpted them to a cooler look.I had the guy's name I built the car for stitched in Sublime on the front seat covers and we made a custom dash cover with his name on it also. That was my Idea.

Here are the fronts. I kind of like these a retro 5 spoke. Kind of classic but it is not. Like the whole theme of the car.

The rear tires. I was also putting the car on the scales to check out the front and rear weight ratios.

Here is a good shot of the front. This whole set up was very very tight dropping the body on the K member.A lot of work went into making the oil pan fit. All the stainless braided lines. This has a Hydro Boost power brake system.Lots of tedius hours of custom fitting everything. But it all came together real nice. This car was made to be very practical with hardly any maintainence and beat the heck out of it.

The Heater box was restored new core and Kit From Moparts Member James (71 T/A). I also bought the firewall and body gasket kit from him. The heater box still had the part number stenciled on it from the factory.

Carpet is in. I put power windows in front and rear and wired it all looked factory. The Kit I bought from XV Motorsports. Carpet and dash are in.Headliner is in. The carbon fiber dash applique I bought from (71 T/A) also. That gave it the new look with the original gauges, Thanks James it was a good touch.
