Two tips:
Get the sub straps for the harness and use them.
Hide the red horns...
A nice choice. I like no stripes.

Typical Chas. But seriously, what's up with the red horns? Does the Copper car have them too?

BTW, it may or may not matter to you, but it did for me. Originally my Kirkham roller had the straight shifter (like a 289) as well. Since I wanted my car to look reasonably authentic, I/we had to fabricate a new tranny tunnel to accomodate the shifter moving back to the original location so that I could run the dogleg-forward type shifter like the original 427's.

I also went for the wood steering wheel, but I'm sure many folks prefer the black wheel for driving around town, autocrossing or racing.

Everything boils down to personal preference. Best of luck.
