I've got a buddy of mine that owns a tool and die shop (the people that make the plastic molds) and also has a plastics shop.. My question is.. What are the TOP.. HARD TO FIND.. I'd Sell MY MOTHER TO GET.. pieces that you would like to see reproduced? They will prob have to be dyed.. but a nice alternative..

One thing that a lot have people were interested in in the past is a custom made A pillar gauge pod. So far most of us use the hang on almost fits Autometer. We were trying to get a place to make the actual complete trim piece with the gauge pods built in. We can probably dig up some info on it. I think Eric at Coolcats headed up the last attemp and knows as much as anyone about it. They are not the same for all years.

Yah.. this is a priority for me.. It was one of my biggest pet peaves about the Turbo Coupes.. that and the tiny little ash tray they put in.. Gonna see about fabricating something somewhere to incorporate a cup holder.. but we may have to give up the passenger... (a wet bar won't fit on the drivers side) Wink

I was def. thinking about the door handle trim pieces. That should be a no brainer to recreate.. The Pillar pods sound like an awsome idea.. I'll see what can be done.

I would try to get the whole a-pillar with the pods molded in. Might as well do it right. the current 95+ stang ones work fine otherwise.
NO TC and NO headaches.

On the a-pillar pods.. Would the general consensus be that.. the position Pete has them in the picture would be the most desirable?
