Default It's like Christmas time... in May

The mod bug hit he hard recently, and as you may be able to see by the rest of the post the amount of boxes coming in the mail makes it feel like Christmas, but at the same unfortunate time it drains my wallet. Here is an update on the ride! Hurst shifter has been fixed and bolted better. No more rattle, and it sits in the middle! Ebrake piece has also been added!
Let me know what you think!

Hurst and E-brake




MMD Hood struts and radiator extension covers installed



Ford Racing 3.73 gears, Motive install and bearing kit, and Roush Billet race style pedals



White leather welt door trim




Gears and pedals go on the car this Tuesday!
Thought I'd share.

Looks good, I especially like the white piping on the door trim, looks classy!

Looks great!
Heads up, keep an eye out for pitting on the e-brake handle. I had one replaced and the second one is starting to pit as well.
Put a little wax on it to help protect it.

Thanks! If you want to check out getting some they are extremely easy to put in, and fairly cheap to how much they add to the look. You can check them out here:

I bought 15 ft. of white and it was more than enough for both doors. I still have about 2-3 ft or so left.

What do you mean by "pit"... like the chrome wears off or something?

"Pitting", you will start seeing little tiny pin point indentions in the chrome. Looks like someone took a sharp point and poked indentions all over the e-brake.
