The car has air conditioning installed. That is one thing I need to clean up. Any clean ideas of how to make it look nice? Not a fan of the 6" dryer tube and the heat mat, for the record.

They are chrome plated vintage wheels with 315's. I will be putting the 335's on when I am done wearing these out. The bad news on the 335's is the cost. The 315 Sumi's are a tad over $100 each and the Pilot's are almost $1000 a pair. The 335's do fill the wheel well out a little nicer in my opinion.

The car looks great Jake. I hope we can have a few local cruises this year so I can see it up close.

Some custom aluminum cover plates would be my suggestion. I know a guy that has a brother who's cousin's neighbor works at a place that can get and fabricate aluminum. He made many custom things in my car.

This is the enlarged footbox:


With the cover on it (to match the driver side):


A shelf behind the seats:


Let me know if I can help with it.

Hi Jake,
nice ride!
You remind me of Bish getting STUCK trying to get in my old cobra, hahahaha.
The roof makes a world of difference in the heat, 20* cooler inside.
The polished wheels are great.

Looks great Jake. If only the weather would get better. You getting out of it reminds me of trying to get out of a GT40. That's why I sh1t canned the idea of owning one of those. These old bones don't twist like they used to.
