Dash is in, interior is cleaned, and the oil plus the filter has been changed. Wednesday it will get a good bath. It's time to roll! Shawnfl is comming by prior to me leaving. He's bringing his camera---I hope?

Some pics of his new lambo doors, curly shot me before he left the shop at XS customs here in florida. 
Curly says XS used a new stronger strut this go round making opening the doors feather light,
and opening outward wider. 
Still waiting on new pics of the dash from Shawnfl and some pics from the road. [This message has been edited by exoticse (edited 11-10-2005).]

Just talked to Madcurl again, he is in Texas. He says the car is getting mad attention ! People are slowing down taking pics, etc. Basically drawing a crowd everywhere it goes. Should be some good tales upcoming for the choptop chronicles !

Man. It's seems like there will be a large Daytona choptop turnout. 11-12 choptops (I hope).
UPDATE: I finally arrived in CA on Sunday 16:00HR. Before I left BAK, I dropped additional pics off at Dale's house. I didn't use my camera phone, hehe. Issues? Yes. My battery died on me while at a rest stop in TN. I drove straight throw to AK. I spotted a local Auto Zone and bought a new battery. How did I drive that far w/o shutting the car off? I used my gas card and left the engine running. Yes. That's a "no-no," hehe. Also my XM radio didn't work. Why? They accidently mounted the reciever underneath the steering wheel. I had my 20-disc backup...no problem. What's new? Dash is finished in fiber-glass with a black shiney paint. Items? 1. Dakota Digital gauges
2. 2005 Mustang air vents
3. Street Works electric window switches (illuminated), Cup holders.
4. 2003 Viper shifter bezels.
4. MOMO shifter.
5. and Mr. Mike's Custom one-off interior (material). Items not finished: 1. Bezel around stereo, ugly grey-ish mat behind seats, and headliner. From the [pics] you'll notice that it's not finished.
2. hook-up Dakota gauges. The unfinished items will be done in CA. The guy in FL was "fooling around." I didn't have all day. [This message has been edited by madcurl (edited 11-15-2005).]
