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.-Differential gears changed from 3:27 to 3:73
-Custom Rollbar - 1 5/8" Tubular Steel. #4130 Alloy [Chrome Moly]. Powder Coated Silver
-Front Brakes - Brembo, 4-Piston,14-inch Rotors/ Rear Brakes - Cobra Mustang 11.65-inch vented rotor
-E-Brake - Lokar EHB700F-01-lg repositioned to passenger side floor from drive shaft tunnel
-Steeda Underdrive Pullies / Steeda Firewall Clutch Cable Adjuster
-Billett Aluminum Clutch Quadrant / A/C Delete Kit /MSD Coils

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.-Differential gears changed from 3:27 to 3:73

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.Attached Files
