Wow I was wondering what you might have in store for this year. Once again you are taking it to another level. What does your show schedule look like for this year?

I had all my wood and dome light panel redone in a Black Granite finish to complement the blk interior. I get everything done at patterntek.com

To be honest Mark, I think I'm only doing HIN Orlando in July, and HIN Miami in Dec this year. I'm really gonna try to finish this car this year and see if I can have her be a tour car next year.

Hey T, I've been meaning to speak to you this year, maybe at HIN Orlando if you come down and have time. We have some hugs plans this year and wanted to get your opinions. On the amount of suede I can call the shop tomorrow and find out exactly but I'm pretty sure he said he bought like 8 yards for my project. I'll find out for you.

My buddy John and I spent the weekend gutting My car's interior inbetween watching the NFL draft We completed the project late this afternoon after hitting a few snags with the wiring( whole lot of wires behind the dash) But all the new Suede pieces and oem blk carpet are finally installed and everyting is tighter than ever and working properly. I'm gonna clean her up in the next coming days and get fresh pics up of the new interior pieces. I think I can finally say My interior is complete, except getting a new gauge pod made for under my radio.

Heres the gutted pic.
