Have you thought about buying takeoffs from a later car? Im sure those are reasonably priced, and you coul potentially get leather and comfier seats to boot.
I see no problem with putting more into a car than it was purchased for.. but then again, i pumped $6K into a $2K II lol.
Hmm... by proportion I should be allowed to spend $54K on the Bullitt....

About the reasonably priced part:NO! The ones I bought are from a '96 GT. I really like them, just not the color. There is a small rip in the driver's seat, but for fifty bucks, who cares! Everytime I do find a nice pair of seats, someone else always gets to them first, or they're REALLY expensive. For example, I found some very nice leather seats out of a mid 90s cobra, black leather and everything. The seller wanted over one-thousand dollars for them! 
I could get black vinyl upholstery for under $400 though. I've never "experienced" vinyl before, so maybe not. These covers aren't that much, and I guess I can always return them. Sorry for the long, boring post!

My friend had this one plane that he bought at walmart. He was flying it in a parking lot on a really windy day, until it kept crashing. He said the whole thing was busted from hitting the pavement, and completely worthless. Afterwards, he returned it for a full refund.
