Dan's seats look very modern with sort of the bat mobile front cut out shape where your legs go.

Oh yeah, he has bomber seats in it........I see what you mean.

The closest I could find to the baseball glove thing was a color called "saddle." The upholsterer gave me several sample books that I took to the shop and Dan and I picked that one because it seemed to go well with the Fusion Orange suspension and engine color. There were a few that fit that need, but it seemed to be the closest. He also found matching carpet.

He made one change in my interior that at first I didn't think I would like, but after thinking about it have to agree it will be better. I originally planned on him just gluing carpet to the inside firewall and leaving my underdash roll bar exposed, kinda like bare bones of the car. Instead, he is making a starboard upholstery board panel that covers all of it and is going to notch it so my gas pedal comes out through it. Then he will carpet it all. I have to agree it will be cleaner looking that way.

I'm anxious to see the interior done.
