      I recently redid the interior in Ultraleather. Was tan and now it's about the color of a football. Note the e-brake is relocated to the passenger floor and the speakers are gone (relocated under the dash). I bobbed the center console.
      Also removed the original HVAC unit and replaced it with a Heater-only unit from Vintage Air.

              Thanks guys. It was pretty involved but I need a "Winter Project".

              Actually I've always wanted to dump the A/C unit in the cockpit and replace it with a larger heater so it would be more enjoyable for Winter and early Spring driving.

              Once I started removing the windshield, dash, and console, I decided to go ahead and make the interior changes that I always wanted, too.

                Fabulous job on the interior. Very nice upgrade. Send your pics to Don, he might hire you to improve the Abruzzi interior.

                  Now wait a minute. The Abruzzi interior is my favorite thing about the car. (excluding raw HP).

                          VIN ENDS IN: (213018) 2005 ESPERANTE GT,Manual, triple black. This was a Canadian car that sat on the show room floor for 7 years; as some of you know I bought it October 2012. It ONLY had 533 Km ,returned to USA, CLUSTER/SPEEDO changed to MPH....rear end gearing changed, exhaust back to US specs , headlamps changed for better nightime use, wheels changed and a couple other things including Ipod connector, trunk light.

                            2002 70

                            2003 28

                              My Esperante is a 2001 1P9PB48381B213045
                              Purchased "new" from the dealer in 2008 with 1116 miles on it.
                              Custom 3 stage Jaguar paint and chrome BBS wheels were the options.
                              I made a copy of the "Certificate of Origin", since I am the first titled owner.
                              It was driven by one of the owners of the dealership untill his GT 500 KR Mustang came in.
