Some nice stuff on this thread. I'll throw a couple of mine on the pile. Handmade grille, cowl hood, front bumper, rear light bar. Shaved doors and tailgate. Handmade strereo panel and console.

Frys has speakers very similar to those for $70

I've got small box speakers under my seat too, sounds pretty good.

Mercedes Benz actually had that at one time.

But I'm thinking it would be easier to use a stock 3 sp shifter and have a separate reverse lever. Maybe a servo and a button? LOL

How do you plan to do it?

I would love to see someone install a button select shifting like the old Desotos and Chrysler Imperials :)
