I don't smoke, so I don't need an ashtray. I gutted the inside part of the ashtray and left the cover, then with fiberglass, gauge holders, Drexel, sand paper and paint I made it happen. I would love to make one for you, but with a new baby in the house spare time is hard to come by.

Awesome sleeper there. What sort of horsepower are you putting down?
