	I love a stripped out car. When I have the money to get another project (whatever that may be) i can be certain it'll be stripped out and caged up. I simply love it when a car is built for the kill. That said, I have a lot of time for those finished to a high standard. One of my favourite interiors of this ilk belongs to the Monte Carlo from Fast and the Dubious - Smoky Old Drift... Hnnng... I love the simplicity, the panelling on the doors, the simple but effective seats. It's perfect. Well, it would be if the floor was mint, but hey ho. So, what can you show me to inspire me further? Cages and buckets are all well and good, but I'm looking for something 'more'. Let me see your photos, folks! Here are some snaps to get you started... Chris

	I do like a tidy, purposeful interior. I'll be hoping to go for the sort of look you're describing with the mini, everything there for a reason, but in a neat and functional looking manner. Sorry it's modern, but have a 360deg view of a Skoda Fabia R2 rally car.

	Taken straight out my build thread... If I had my hard drives with me, there's a whole lot more!

	Loved this stripped out Nova at the Meadowhall RR meet. Just as nice on the outside too. Only the essentials are kept, and even the cage is almost invisible. Purposeful and quite possibly perfect.

	This picture sits in my photobucket waiting for me to find excuses to post it.

Possibly for either the clutch or for reverse lockout?

	Heres my trackcar, a little out of date, seats are mounted on lower boxsection now, and the original mounting bars in floor are gone now. The whole lot is going black soon as well.
