A few custom bits installed today

Post by SpiderJim »

New and improved home made F badge with jewels and center ruby.

Made and installed two tool and spare parts storage boxes the one on right is shown.

Installed a trunk lid liner that matches the interior carpet and leather in gun metal that also matches my Rota wheels. This covers the embarrassing nuts and bolts for the trunk rack that I always felt was like dropping your pants while wearing dirty underwear. Also installed new carpet and deck liner. Just have to clean off the yellow wax undercoat then finish the front trunk compartment in truck bed liner then ready for shows. Image

I like these upgrades/mods as well! I'm a big believer in turning your car into whatever you're most happy with. Kudos for the initiative to do it and for posting pics!

I was inspired by your trunk boxes and decided i needed some too! Yours look great :) Now I have a nice and organized trunk, a much better setup than what i had before :S I used 1/2" wood and upholstered it with some black vynal.

Just curious, but what's the reason for the mixed English / German on the battery label?

Thanks.... Glad you like it and especially did the same. Just made perfect sense to me and stops stuff moving around.

Laughing..... No idea but also french has well. I just reproduced what was on the original battery cover on my 81? Maybe it was originally a Euro model with LH drive?
