Very nice most likely the best interior I've seen on a spider. What is the color Rosa Red?

Nicely done!

I'm wondering about the rear view mirror. I've thought about putting one on my GT 250 dash. Question is, can you see over the convertible top with a mirror on the dash. What is the height of the mirror? Is it a 6"?

yes, I used PPG single stage and I'm pretty sure that was the color,though I bought the paint so long ago!

Yeah, about 6". I got it from"noslocators" on ebay. $14 brand new. It is used on bugeyed sprites and some Cobra kit cars. I can see great over the top but it does shake alittle!

Try putting a piece of rubber between the mirror mount and dash.

The flip top gas lid is cool too, kinda Cobraish.
I don't think it would fit on a stock looking car but looks great w/ your mods!

Looks like great work on a beautiful car. Personally though I like bumpers.
Otherwise it's a bonafide winner

Where is the grill? That car needs some teeth! That head on shot is nice (#5) looks like a big piece of candy.

Fantastic! I also noticed the lip that is normally hidden by the rear bumper was also removed...I also like the led tail lights too! Very similar to my spider bodywise btw

Hi Doug,
I need your help if you wouldn't mind. I found a rear view mirror and I need to know the exact height of the one on your car since you know it works. My car is apart and there's no way to figure this out. The mirror I'm looking at is only 4 1/4" tall. I'm hoping it would work. Would you please measure yours? I need to know the height from the dash to the top. Thanks.

What was used for your interior? The finish on it looks like leather but I can't see any seams anywhere?? Interested in how the dash was wrapped

He must not be on the site much.
