    Looks great. Did you do it in fiberglass? I see the wood structure.

    Looks great. I want to make a custom console when I do my Comet GT. Looks like your technique might be the answer.

    I saw them in person today...look even better in real life. And that Raspberry paint, looks pretty good when you see it. Can't wait to see it on the car and in the sunlight....

    Hey everyone...encourage Ed to put Eileen II pictures on the site...that is one BEAUTIFUL car, and he has done some really neat personalized touches. Lots of powdercoating, good body work, taillights, wonderful paint, speakerboxes, the trunk puts my entire car to SHAME...

    What do you say, Ed...put some pics up so everyone can experience it
