    Leather Wrapped Steering Wheel

    That's the one thing that would improve the feel, a thicker wheel. I watched the video on the baseball stitch, looks awesome but didn't think I'd have the patience to get around the whole wheel. As it was I took two beer breaks, it was pretty warm in the garage lol.

    Aplogies, got busy and forgot to reply Walt's Transmissions on Magnolia in Burbank. A good, fair mechanic who's used to working on older cars. Not sure about AC Tyerman's Auto on Magnolia I haven't used them for much but they have a lot classics in their bays. They do a bit of everything...

    Leather Wrapped Steering Wheel

    Ever since I bought my Barracuda the steering wheel cover on it bothered me but I knew it had to be covering up some cracks. I recently saw a post on FB 67-69 BOG about installing a leather steering wheel cover. I ordered one in black leather and did the install over the weekend. Sure enough...

    What's this called? I need one

    There is a gap between these trim rings and the gauges that lets the light in, the trim rings are solid. But they do have a mix of white/black paint, maybe the white is to help reflect more light.

    What's this called? I need one

    Great idea. I have a friend with a race shop and was talking to him about it, he's offered to make one from the measurements with some 3" aluminum pipe but just got a bite on my wanted thread so may not be necessary. Thanks everyone for all the replies!

    [WANTED] Inner trim ring on gauge cluster for Tach

    Looking for one of these inner trims rings, hopefully without having to buy an entire cluster OR... if you've fabricated one please let me know what material you used. Thanks FABO Photos attached for reference

    What's this called? I need one

    Appears removable but a little tricky. No screws, looks like the tabs slide over a plastic post which is then melted to form sort of a plastic weld. Probably easier to glue back on than get out without damaging it. I'll post an ad, thanks.

    What's this called? I need one

    Pretty much, covers from the lens to about a 1/8-1/4" away from the gauge, enought of a gap to let some light in. Inner diameter would be about 3" and outer about 3 1/4" if I have to make one (but out of what??). Depth tbd but probably less than an inch

    What's this called? I need one

    That's what I was originally thinking but now that it's out I can see it's not the tach, the face of the tach goes to the proper depth. There is a sort of inner trim ring for the cluster that's missing, I can see it on the other two gauges.

    What's this called? I need one

    Very likey, I'm already thinking I won't find one and what can I use to fab something.

    What's this called? I need one

    Ahhhhh, my Dad had a bunch of those. It looked more like a whachamacallit to me but I think you're right.

    What's this called? I need one

    I took out my gauge cluster to replace the dash speaker as well as some work on the gauges and install new vent hoses. I also recently installed new dash bulbs and noticed I get a lot of light bleed from around the tach. Now that I have my gauges back out I see why, I'm missing this piece...

    [FOR SALE] Plug and play - Headlight Relay Kits

    Ordered the kit a couple of weeks ago and finally got the chance to finish up the install. Very nice quality and great customer service. As mentioned very intuitive layout and the various lengths are perfect. I mounted the relays to the underside of the battery tray and it was a simple, clean...

    Interior and dash lights

    I was worried about that but replaced the fuse and all is back to normal. Map, courtesy and dash lights all working correctly, dimmer too. Now that I spent an hour plus looking over the wiring diagram I know how to add the glove box light, now just need to find one!

    Interior and dash lights

    Ding ding ding.... what's that saying.... keep it simple stupid? I was trying to jump ahead without ever checking the box. Finally got a chance to take a look and sure enough, burnt out down at the cap. I guess everything still working but not how it's supposed to work threw me. Also found a 10A...

    Interior and dash lights

    So I was giving a friend a ride in the Barracuda (69) and was showing him that the "cigar lighter even works" and when the lighter popped the map light right below it came on. But only the front map light, not the rear courtesy lights. I started trying a couple of things and when I rotate the...

    Any events in Ventura/Oxnard area this weekend ( 7/16-17) ?

    Well, I wish I was posting photos from the C&C but had a little issue yesterday. I had the trunk full for the trip and when I landed at the house I got out to pull the 3x5 matt I was planning to lay down in the garage in case of any drips etc. I kind of buried it loading up so I had to move some...
