Don't worry about the purists. Those straw hat pocket pencil holders can get over it. It's your car do as you want. They just get mad, then you and I can make fun. Lol!
That's kind of what I'm thinking too. Believe me, I'm all for restoring cars back to original... when you have a complete #'s matching car to start with. But, this is going to be customized to my likes. Thanks for the support!
