          I love everything about this except for the wood wheel and shift knob. Of course, you're building it for yourself, not me. Either way, this thing is awesome!

            I've always had a "thing" for wood wheels - but I do have to admit I'm undecided on if this one is gonna stay. The same wheel with brushed silver center - but wrapped in black leather - could be on the "to do" list.

            I've got a long list of stuff to do though before I get to that point!

                                        I didn't know anything about the color - I knew I wanted a 89 tho. I love the color - is it anything special or just a favorite?
