71 Demon Back From The Dead
Well this no budget/low effort build has started to get carried away. When I began, I said I would stick to the plan and throw it together as cheap as possible no matter what it looked liked.. that didn't last long! It got too hot to be in the garage working on it so I began ordering and locating parts that I needed. Now it's time to get back to work. Windshield is out so I could get the dash out. I'm going to steal 72bluNblu's idea on the gauge cluster. Had a spare rallye gauge cluster that other wise would have been considered trash so it will get patched up and thrown in. More on that this weekend hopefully. I'm getting ahead of myself though, this all began because I began unwrapping wiring under the dash and realized this car was a fire waiting to happen. The main harness had melted together and was unrepairable. I ordered up a Ron Francis Retro Series harness, so I'll be wiring, working one the dash and rebuilding the manual column I acquired over the next couple weeks.
