Nothing goes better with red than red.

Thanks POPS and JOHNO, here is a picture of my ratchet shifter I installed on top of my 4 speed shifter tunnel along with my line lock button. Pops and I talked about the shifter awhile back because he had one and really liked it. I have to install the little button on the reverse handle and put the tape down for the shift sequence,tighten the knob and that will be finished. Andy

Love the red interior, my favorite.

Say, I was watching the video from the sound deadening thread. The Boom Mat rep. was saying the foil backed stuff was for harmonic dampening on the large flat area's. He was saying it isn't necessary to cover everything with it. It certainly can't hurt but I may take his lead on that.

They use that stuff, or a similar product, on the bottom of some of the better stainless steel kitchen sinks. They only use a 3" or so strip on the bottom of each bowl. Without it, you can knock on the sides and bottom of the bowls and it sounds like an oil drum. Do the same on a sink that has it, and it just makes a dull thud. It only takes a relatively small piece compared to the total area of the panel to disrupt the resonance of the panel. When you consider how much it costs and weighs per sq ft, it's a good thing that you can get significant deadening without having to add 70 or 80 extra pounds to the weight of your car.

Andy, your ride is looking sharp. I think Sammy Hagar would approve also.

Now I'm getting ready to install the front door panels. But first I'm going to install new outside door handles and new door locks that match my ignition switch. Following is a picture of inside the door of the linkage I'll be tackling.Andy (as always click on picture for larger view.)
