If your going to spend $100,000 on restoration, you should at least do it correctly...

Agreed, wrong upholstery, and the deck lid looks awful with that faux-wheel on it. If you take a look at the FL cars that did have the Flight-sweep lid, the lids always sloped towards the rear of the car, and 1957 Dodge trunk lids are almost flat, which is totally not flattering to the aesthetics of the wheel outline at all.

What uncltank said...... These were never designed for a Flyte Sweep trunk and it looks silly. It really does look like a toilet seat on this car.
