Then I'd venture the humble suggestion that you may be under 40 :lol:

This sort of thing was considered cool in 70s and early 80s and had magazines dedicated to how to apply sticky back fur cladding to the dash of your MK1/2/3 cortina and what particular fake leopard spot seat covers were likley to pull the most ladies. :sick:

It's retro old school - but it isn't cool.

I was going to say - I have a car book from the 80's and all the custom cars were like that !! ... we'll be looking back at our cars in 20 years and laughing.

I remember stuff like that, my mates brother used to work at a Ford dealer in Lowestoft, I used to think his cars were 'cool' I remember watching him apply a vinyl roof to an old Cortina which he had fitted with round porthole windows in the back :grin:

Not so cool now though! :o
