Phillip, that seems like both an easy (labor wise) and potentially saleable item. I’ve never seen any of these items in person, other than the intake-And, nice manipulation of the image!
Yeah, someone commissioned me to create something similar several years ago.
I’m just not in the retail business - if a vendor like WCCC wants to offer this I can make it happen.

On a slightly related topic I spoke to a gentleman I have bought parts from for years a 3-4 years back looking for some red interior parts. He worked for Bud Moore back in the day and still had some of the removed red interior parts that he saved when they closed the shop down. At the time I was looking for XR7 items and his stuff was standard body so I didn’t have a need.
That is so cool Kerry - that adds up. Bud was sent Cardinal Red Standard Cougars with red interiors.

There isn’t much Bud Moore/ Cougar info or parts on the web-
Has anyone run across the history of these Cougar Heuer watches? Perhaps they were made for the 1967 drivers?
I have never seen one before. The graphics look of the period. I’m no watch expert - I guess the first thing is to verify that the actual watch dates to 1967. Can’t imagine anyone would add the Cougar branding to a vintage watch.
Very cool item if it is genuine!

Wow!
Yes, it is a genuine Carrera Heuer watch owned by a knowledgeable watch collector. A small quantity of Shelby Cobra watches were also made for Shelby Execs.
