I have an ebony pen, has a great feel to it... 

Gee, what if I used ebony, maple, and spruce... it'd be like a guitar, only from within the inside... 

Was going to use mahogany for the rear seat kick panel... and thinking of replacing the ac duct with curved wood.. just like they curve wood for guitars... cause that plastic is going to decay at some point... and break and crack....

Maybe I could get an ebony dash... its just damaged vinyl with overspray right now... 

Was thinking of having mahogany door panels.. (veneer over airplane birch ply... ) with maybe leather accent, and solid wood handles... 

Turning my vanagon into a yacht...
