new project / already having a blast

Thanks, The knob controls the fan speed(low/med/high) on the heater blower and when you pull it straight out its got a cable connected to it to open a door on the heater unit for heat to blow into the cabin. I did it for defrost just in case, you know those long nights foggin up the windows with your women(I wish)

Great idea. Nice thinking man!

Don't feel bad Rich, someone has to dream it (foggin up the windows ) before it can be reality. lol

The gauge cluster really motivated me. Wired all the guages and bolted it in the car. I cant believe how nice the DSE dash fit, and how structural it feels once bolted up to the dash frame. I think I have over 75 hours invested in wiring, my OCD kicked in while in the dash harness soldering all connections even crimp connectors that go in a connector housing and using two to three pieces of shrink tubing on every joint . I guess you cant be to safe, I have this rubber strip edgeing that I applied to all sheet metal edges that wires were resting on(I need a wiring detox program). I think I see the light at the end of the tunnel, just have to install the front light harness and maybe the engine will go in next. The engine compartment harness hopefully will be mostly plug in and dress.

Im surprised that know one has made a billet bezel to replace the grab bar plate on the dash. Maybe something black anodized.

Well that was subtle Rich!




Car is coming along nicely!

Thanks Greg,
When I had MCC do the sheet metal I should have had Mike weld up all the holes in the dash, its a much cleaner look. Behind that plate it looks like swiss cheese.
Hey if anyone knows of a company making a single DIN reciever with GPS built in pass the info my way Thanks Rich

Thank you again! Im just not sure if those flip out screens will clear the step in the guage cluster. The reciever is recessed almost 2 inches, I will have to check it out. Appreciate the help- Rich
