Dug some parts out of the vintage stash, Superior 500 wheel with a chrome boss (can't get those anymore) and a Sun Blue line oil pressure gauge and chrome panel. Will fit a matching temp and volt gauges when some turn up for less than a weeks wages....

Wish I had this car, I really miss mine. No chance of getting one unless I import.

Column change will go, I have a '70's floor shifter to fit when I make a start on the interior, still collecting parts for that.

Bit of a day 2 under hood thrash this week. Freshly bead blasted early '70's era Edelbrock Torker intake installed with a 750 holley. Had to mod the kick down bracket a fair bit to get the linkage to line up, seems to be right now. Cal Custom covers and breathers pulled out of the stash, electronic dizzy with brown Accel cap & coil & my usual Denso alternator mod. Just the Accel leads to sort and fit a new belt when it arrives and we're up and running again.
