We are building the 72 for a customer...he plans to drive it...show it a little bit, but mostly just his dream truck for personal cruising.

Good eye...yes, the entire interior was done up in leather but in an OEM style including the door panels, and that is why you see the seam.

Sorry for the lag on "finished" photos...here are 2 from the day our customer picked it up...very tense moment when we used our lift to drive it into the back of his semi-truck...we chained the lift to his truck for security, but it was still very scary.

Reviving an old thread here. Beautiful build, and nice attention to detail. What heat exchanger and rad did you use and is it working well to keep the LSA cool?
