Finally got around to updating the center console, clock and gauges. Also decided to install an Android head unit with reverse camera. The original clock was burnt out when I purchased the car. I managed to find a quartz analogue clock that looks good and fitted pretty well into the original space with a bit of dremel work. The clock shouldn't draw much power but I installed a small switch to turn off power to it if needed.

Nice work! Is your car all set up for right hand drive?
 
Installed a new set of aux gauges and Wideband. Just need to hook everything up, including getting the O2 bung welded in. So far so good and I'm happy with the look of the setup.
On the other side of the spectrum, I'm a hack when it comes to body work, so I'm continuing to turn my car blue again (versus the gray, blue, black mess) with spray paint. Cheap spray paint, at that. Looks less crappy than before, so that's a net positive.

I decided to take a little hour drive yesterday and spend a little money.

Well...more than a little. But oh well. Some nice rides in the lobby (GTO especially) and the team was great as usual.

@Rick@NPD sorry I missed ya my friend.

Been wanting to do this FOREVER, but still haven't convinced myself to drive up from Ft. Lauderdale, only to empty my bank account... which would inevitably happen while I'm there. Must've been fun for sure.

Nice Stang. What do the three toggle switches in the center dash control? Also sitting nice in the rear, what size rubber?
