Future Plans

"SARTED INTERIOR 02/13/03" Full blown interion in tweed leather mix(it is all tan now). All gray tweed dash with black tweed inserts, and top half pillars will be black, driver pillar will have a dual 2" guage pod(one amp temp, other oil pressure), a silver ford symbol with neon blue tribal flames on head liner, flames will flow to back pillars and down on to the rear deck which will have 6 by 9 plus tweet pods. Lower half of car will be done in a dark gray tweed with black carpet. Seats will be gray leather with some type of inserts(undecided) in blue, yellow and black. Building custom center console to hold headunit, PS2, all my neon switching, air gauges, cup holders(never really see a custom console with cup holders), and whatever else I need in there. When I can park my car, I will start the biggest mod, Ford 302 out of a 92 or 93 mustang 5.0 GT Cobra, and converting my car to rear wheel drive, that will take some time and creativness, since I am doing this myself minus friends and family! Other than that, just regular upgrades to what I have already done!
