Default A Few Minor Interior Upgrades...MBA ***** and Shifter Boot

I took a few updated pics of my car's interior this past Sat at a The Nastalgia Night of Fire Show as the South GA Motor Park in Adel, GA.

Anyway here are some pics with the new polished MBA ***** (they started out brush and were a PIA to polish by hand!), and new redline products shifter boot. I still have a few things planned...the shifter stick is getting chromed ad is the emergancy brake handle. And eventually I want to do something with the seats...something jaw dropping but subtle. And finaly I am thinking of adding a cage...just not sure on that one yet.

My chromer isnt sure if you can crome the bow piece because of how deep it would have to hang in the tank...so hes trying to find someone for me that he knows can. If I cant then I will go SOM...but chrome would rule!

I got a real good on them (of course they were used) so they didnt cost that much, but I have about 2 or 3 hours in each one sanding and polishing them. Getting all the "brushed" finish off was a PIA! I was thinking they would just have a brushed finish like most stainless pieces and you could sand and buff it out, but they had some kind of anodizing or coating on them that gave them the look of being "brushed".

You definitely want to get it chromed, "ask me how I know " 6 point cage with dual swingouts. I have not posted pics of my WOLFE chrome 6 point, yet. It looks killer when the T-tops are out and people can see the chrome cage .


***** look great, your car is just sick !
