    PART-TIME, AWSOME looking car:clap: !!! What kind of seats are those? Looks like great attention to detail. I don't know how to say this and sound as impressed as I am, but everything goes together very well.

    I am going to guess they are late model Ford Probe seats.

    Thanks guys for all the very nice comments! MAVAHOLIC, I am assuming NPD means National Parts Depot? Never been myself. I've attended the Turkey Rod Run at Daytona several times but without a car. It's been a 4 1/2 year project and I did'nt want to take it out of the garage until it was finished. As for the seats, Craig, your exactly right. They are from a Ford Probe. I wanted to get away from the original box looking buckets that were in the car.

    Yes, the National Parts Depot show. Its down there, probably not too far from you. I attended last year and am planning on comming down this Jan again. I'd love to see your car in person.

    Mavaholic, I did'nt even know there was a NPD show. It's probably around the Ocala/Gainsville area.(About a 2 hour drive) I'm just now getting into the Friday/Saturday night cruises not to far from home. They are all over central Fl. I'll probably stick with the smaller cruises for now. I attended the Daytona Turkey Rod Run (without a car) It's almost pointless because there are so many cars you just blend in. By chance you come to the Orlando area let me know. I'm 10 minutes west in Ocoee. Maybe we'll get together and cruise Old Town in Kissimmee. If you've never been I'm sure you would love it. Are you bringing your car with you to the NPD show?

    very freakin nice. This club is single handedly (or many handedly) increaseing the value and desireability of Mavericks across the country. I can't wait to see the next calendar. I probably won't even submit mine because there are way too many better looking Mavericks.
