Billet Hub was $160 + $250 for the wheel. It is 2in smaller then a factory wheel and feels amazing.

Italian leather is much nicer then Aussie fake leather.

Next year I want to do two seats and a wheel. I had two Sparco seats in one of my F-body's and there is nothing like them for holding you in place!!! New, they are just two effin expensive for the vette and if I'm luck enough to find a used set, they are somewhere on the left coast and shipping them is $$$. In time, I will have two more and a wheel like that.

Yaa. $900 a seat is hard to swallow.

Find some that at 5years+ old that aren't legal for racing any more. Sparco sells new seat covers so you can make them look as good as new.

At one time when I was trying to buy covers for my last ones, the only place you could buy them was from SPARCO, UK. While I was in the U.K. they wouldn't sell to the public.

Is that not the case anymore?

If you call Sparco USA they can get you any cover you need. They are $150-225 per cover.

Right after he welds the doors shut, replaces the glass with lexan and nylon mesh, and he and JMD start getting into trouble and jumping big piles of dirt while running from papabear.

I'm making a ratchet shifter. I've worn the stock plastic one out.

I'll prob only do lexan on the quarter glass and rear glass.

Lexan windshields get sand blasted on the street and I want to keep power windows.
