more pics :



cluster with bezel :



and the wiring from the back of the cluster:




I still have to wire in the indicator strip bezel , and I plan on installing the cluster lens on there ( I remember having a new one somewhere here , but I can't find it ) , I was thinking of tinting it with a very light tint so that the gauges look blacked out when off .

more to come soon

well some progress I guess

I finally finished the wiring on the car and most of the interior is back in .

board wiring :



dash back in :



carpet finally in :



so the wiring is mostly done ( have to hook up one or two more wires), and the gauges all work. I also put the seats back in . I just have to tighten the passenger seat noy and install the harnesses.

the plan was to finish installing the rest of the interior ( center console , interior panels , ac vents and panels ), but that got put on hold cause I busted my Camaro trans and now I have to pull this tranny out ( the tranny on the mustang is the old rossler tranny that was on my Camaro that busted the tail housing ) to put it back in the Camaro .

so what goes in its place ??? the nice little built 4L80 I had sitting in the corner for a while 

this is it after I cut the ears of and ready to haul it in place:



so now I have to install it in with the new circle D converter , figure out what to do with the cross member, cut the driveshaft to length , install the new 4 speed shifter, and figure out if I want to use the TCI controller on this thing or use the pcm to control it via a speartech conversion adapter.

and that's about it for now


I do have a few other sinister plans i'm thinking of, but I have to make sure this thing is running and ready by the 17th for a local race , which means that I might not get a chance to install the "other" stuff on there because it would require some fabrication and time to set it up right.
