Ohhhh yeah! I remember now! Holy **** makes me wonder what else Ive forgotten about that car lol

<StevieG>

I FB'd the driver, asking all sorts of questions about it the ep... Never heard back yet... probably wont, but he's a ford driver now I believe.... oh well

SHG_Mike

just from my experience, drivers dont and wont know anything about the car. They get in it and drive it fast no matter what it is. They aren't always concerned with how or why it does.

SHG_EasyE

Yeah you would probably be better off getting in touch with some of the teams that ran the cars back then like Arena Motorsport or Team Dynamics.

Finished the door pulls boys! Came out sick

Here are the original door lever brackets that I had to modify to work with the new pulls. You can see the tab that holds the end of the actuator cable in the first picture. I had to weld in a piece of metal to extend the tab so the strap wouldnt stick out too far, aswell as flip it upside down so the strap would come out flush with the door.

Kitty was overseeing the sewing process... maybe she knew it was the first time Ive ever touched one of these things

Both straps sewed up

And the drivers side attached to the cable. You can kind of see the stitching here. The cable had a 90 deg metal end on it so I slid it in the open end of the strap then hand stitched around both parts of the cable end.

All done!

AllMotorDan

i'd like to try these out, something about it doesn't look like its easy or natural to pull but won't know till i try

SHG_EasyE

Thanks for the props guys Im glad this seyup is getting good feedback

Thanks dude, they def add a nice splash of red to the doors to even it out through the interior

Id be happy to make you a set. PM me with what you have in mind

Yeah man, I can Imagine it would take some getting used to but out race cars have a similar setup so Im so used to opening doors that way now its like second nature

phunhaus

Those came out really good. Congrats!

Another update for you guys. I finally got around to refinishing my seat like Ive wanted to since I got it. I wasnt feeling the glossy carbon (if you guys havent noticed I HATE shiny carbon) lol.

Since the harness guides are bonded together you have to break them to get the seat upholstery off. Since Im not ready to get a new cover I just masked them off and pulled the cover back.

Here it is wet sanded and prepped:

And cleared!

All done and looking smooth and sexy

Man Evan that seat looks so sick with the flat clear. Way to change it up. I love your interior homie

SHG_Claudio

I think glossy is sick but after seeing that I think that looks just as good if not better! The seat looks brand new!

double wishbone

I was thinking the same thing. Had this not been brought to my attention, I would have continued to prefer glossy. Now I know better

SHG_Claudio

^Exactly!
