Talking BoilerUp inspiration...

After seeing the detail and follow thru on a theme on BoilerUp's latest Coupe, I was inspired to do more work on the inside of of mine.
I had made a rear cargo deck from an old one I had cut down from a previous PT Cruiser. It worked for what I wanted, a little pizazz in the trunk and to be able to strap things down while driving.
Heres the old deck...

But, after doing the dash kit and the ebony shift **** and door lock pulls, the deck just didn't blend in with the rest. After some research, I came up with this...see what you think

And a back to front view, where you can see the dash kit also...

I am truly humbled to even have my name mentioned with this level of craftsmanship, Terry, it really looks great.

Could you post a few photos of the shift ****, door pins, etc. so everyone can have a look?

If I was not going to do some carbon fiber and fiberglass in the trunk with some custom stereo work, I would be commissioning you to do my coupe like this, it is the epitome of class.

This is why I love this Forum. There are so many here that think "out of the box" with an automobile that does not have a lot of aftermarket parts, yet so many of the owners on this forum find ways to personalize their car. Nice Job!!!!!!

I like the first pic, reminds me of custom pick up truck beds made out of fancy wood. Really creative!

Thank You Gentlemen!!! Coming from this group, your praise means a lot to me. I feel honored every time I get to drive this beautiful machine. And to be able to meet with others and show her off is what it's all about. Some are mechanical wizards, some are just driving fanatics, and then there's people like me who do the cosmetic blings. And yet we ALL can get together here and at the meets and have a good time by all.
And for your request John, here's a link to the current mods photos...

Once again, Thanks for ALL the commnnts!!!

PS-Dan I hope we can make it down for TMS, but we're saving most of our pennies for the CAA-RME.
