Many years ago, I (make that Larry Claypool) installed DRL's (Daytime Running Lights -- regular, outer beams only are on during daylight, no "parking" or tail lights) and automatic lights (go on when started in darkness/come on when driving during daylight to darkness transition; regular beams, parking and tail lights).  Headlights on buzzer after turning off the ignition, if I've unnecessarily pulled out the lights knob; redundant, but fun to have.

Outer, front seatbelt retractors, 20+ year old electric fuel pump, no Petronix, cruise control or pulse wipers.  Several extra lights, including under hood lamp, trunk lamp, 4-way flashers (w/ interior red flasher), parking brake engaged flashing red light and ash tray light.  All by Larry, who does ALL work on my car -- I'm spoiled, I just get to drive it, though not enough lately, only about 600 miles this year.  Wood wheel (not telescoping), wire covers, AM/FM, working clock w/ original movement, factory tinted windows all around (including a tiny windshield spider crack, lower passenger side, for over fifteen years), Vette luggage rack.

I expect to be at the Kalamazoo convention in July, will be in the Car Display -- not sexy, seldom wins anything, paint is 33+ years old, but decent looking and reliable, did I mention Larry does all maintenance?
