anything with a re-purposed pistol grip intrigues me !
my one buddy has a 70 super bee i found for him in carlisle many. many years ago.
as he spruced it up over the many years he has had it, he gave me his original shifter handle and grips.
i re-purposed it into an emergency brake handle with a release leaver and shaft, similar to what is found on a 33-34 dodge handle.
it will reside on the passenger side of the tunnel in my 33 dodge humpback panel truck [long term project].
he also fabbed up a pair of walnut grips that match the walnut wooden steering wheel i will be using on that thing.
for the top of the grips, i fabbed up a clear lexan lens that will have a pic of my project "as found" in the south carolina swamp. another buddy re-sized the old kodak print to fit under the lens.
sorry i don't have a pic of the new grips.
the handle mods [will be painted silver metalflake as will the spokes of the steering wheel] and the pic that was re-sized to fit under the lexan lens instead of the shift pattern.

Good looking shop. What are the physical dimensions of the shop?

Nice space!

The pistol grip is great.

40x80 12 ft walls, office is 23x25, have a slot for my paint booth, so when that is in there the working space will be basically a 40x60.

Thanks !!
