Looks really nice. I think you should paint the panel underneath the AC controls also

well I can't help it man all my previous cars had no handbrake so I always used to leave them in gear, sometimes I forgot after driving my wife accord I leave it in gear also and without paying attention she just starts the car and let go the clutch I can only imagine how upset she gets

I always leave mine in gear because my handbrake failed before. Rolled out in the street while I was in a movie. Cop was nice enough to push it half way in and put a rock underneath my tire.

Why wouldn't you leave it in gear? I always park in gear when i drive an MT.

I personally don't know if it affects anything but i have a habit of just starting the car and releasing the clutch right away. I drove Savclaude's car before and had a mini heart attack when the car jumped.

You have shown your age with a comment like that. Anybody who has learnt to drive a manual transmission, knows that is part of the parking process. Inside your automatic transmission, there is this drum with large gear tooth's around it. This drum works with a detent tab that locks the transmission when put in park. Guess what happens if the detent tab fails?? That is why automatics should be parked with the paring brakes applied & manual trans in LOW GEAR or REVERSE with the parking brakes applied.

It does not. But as a safety feature some vehicles requires the clutch to be push down to start the engine.

My sis had a 80's 635 automatic anx its parking pin failed and her car went through garage door/
Some municipalities have laws about turning wheels to curb when parking on hills too.
Taught on a stick....took my roadtest in a manual no ps 65 chevelle
I was always taught to par k it in gear low or reverse with hand/foot brake.
I also owned a few 60-70 cadillacs they all had vacuum release on foot brake so ifbrake was in use when u shift outof park foot brake automatically released. These were auto of course.

Yes I know this... I always leave mine in gear, I made a comment earlier about that. That's why I wanted to know why he made a comment about leaving it in gear because it actually has a purpose while you are parked. If your cable fails on the e-brake ( like mine had) then leaving it in first gear will prevent you from rolling backwards.
Sorry man!
I meant to quote "BaoZZeR" not you.
