Back inside the car, Trevor installed the freshly leather-wrapped Fesler door panels with carbon accents. The leather, carbon, headliner, and carpet work was done by our partner interior shop, Auto Designs by Sebastian (http://www.autodesignsbysebastian.com).



“Ta Daa!”



The Fesler panels incorporate slick door latch pulls and armrests.





Speakers are recessed into the panel for a clean look.



The Detroit Speed dash panel was skinned with a sheet of carbon fiber to provide a nice accent behind the Speedhut gauges.

A custom billet leather-wrapped steering wheel compliments the high-tech interior.





Simpson harnesses keep the occupants in place when the hammer goes down!

Soon it was time to take the ZR9 out and show it to the public. We were invited guests at the Street Machine Nationals in DuQuoin, IL, and we brought the ZR9 to the event. The crowd really liked the car. We also brought out the ‘64 Chevy C10 and 1969 Chevelle.










The ZR9 also got invited to the Car Craft Summer Nationals in Milwaukee as part of the Pro Builder’s Shootout, the car was very well received! It was a fun event!



Check it out, the ZR9 landed a cameo on the cover of Car Craft Magazine!

Thanks Car Craft!

Very well executed car Kevin, LOVE the interior .. I can see the look you were going for and I think you nailed it !! The mixture of polished bits and carbon fibre turned out really nice

Cheers

We really like how the ZR9 turned out. It’s a great car, built by a very talented crew, for a very cool customer!













We were able to put some miles on the car to make sure everything was happy, but soon it was loaded on the Reliable Carriers transport truck.

Once it arrived at the owner’s house 1/2 way across the world, he reported running it over 260 km/h… that’s over 160 MPH!

We’re glad he’s having fun with it, it was built to drive!

Very cool. I'm glad when people drive these things properly.
