Ooooooh! Blaaaaaack!! Smooooooth!
Like the white stitching on the dash and steering wheel. What are the toggles next to the console gauges? Is that a jet jockey thing?

The Paint looks great.

Yes, black, of course! It's really not A color; it's ALL colors.
Looks boss!

Those are some nice wheels and rims. Where did you get the rims from and they look like 4 bolt with a corvette crest on the center cap? Also what size tires are you running?
Looks great!

is that a 914-6 rear brake setup?
looks like you handled everything nicely. gauge faces, carpet, sail panels and trim, dash.
kinda reminds me of what a car might look like if a pilot owned a 914.
great job.

Paint was done by South County Auto Body (949)859-7990. Ask for Max Gilmore. I got the dash pad from "Lagunero" Albert. I bought $20 worth of carpet at Home Depot and a can of 3M spray-on contact cement. Speedo, tach and instruments were done at North Hollywood Speedometer (818)761-5136. The wheels are Revolution Wheels and a search should turn up some info.
Stock rear brakes and BMW fronts. Thanks for all the kind words about the car. I hope I answered everyones questions.
Cheers, Elliot

I think I picked up the shift knob at one of the swap meats. It might have been Ventura but I honestly don't remember. Sorry.

The engine is a Fat Performance 2.2 4banger. The red line on the tach was a joke between me and the folks at No Hollywood Speedo. They asked where did I want the red line? I said I had no idea so put it at 8,000. The tach only goes to 8000 so they put it at 7800. I don't know if it will rev that high. Maybe I'll see if it will when I install the ceramic lifters.
Cheers, Elliot
