Civilizing a Cal Looker

When collecting parts for my 63 build I wanted to get a set of 911 Recaro replicas with hounds tooth centers. But at $1100 a piece I just couldn`t do it. So I called Scat and they did a custom set of Pro 90 seats that I`m very happy with. And for much less.
Very nice taste there!

I agree, those seats look great.

CSP have Koni steering dampers. Do they have a US retailer, anyone know?

Late to the party...
But while I did this to mine in the engine compartment, you could do it on the inside of the interior under the carpet.
I used HVAC Mastic sealing tape for sound deadening.
While it is not meant for sound attenuation, it works well and is much cheaper than dynamat.

You can see how much of the roll I have left of it hanging on the input shaft of the transmission.
That is now hidden under a solid stainless steel backing out of sight.
It cut down on the interior noise very well.
My car has a healthy exhaust note from my homemade muffler section.

Any videos of this car online? I'd love to hear the exhaust as I'm thinking I might do something similar.
Does it sound anything like this?

My car has a deeper tone that that one.
I am in the process of getting it to play nice now that I have put a 1915 into the car.
I am finding out why the previous owner gave me the engine after he had, had enough of it.
The engine case stud that my throttle center post attaches to is stripped out letting my center post flop about as you drive.
It was just another thing and I have been pissed at my car and driving my wife's Suburban to work.
I will get it up and running soon and get a video of it.
I have ran this exhaust for the last decade on the car and it still looks pretty good.
Although that was on a 1600 and a 1500, now that the engine is quite a bit healthier the muffler may need to be replaced.
Fresh packing in there may make the neighbors happier with me as I drive off to work in the mornings....
