besides the motor parts ive been thinkin about what gauges to run. since the car has a mechanical speedo and i dont wanna spend the money for the conversion box, id rather get new gauges. i dont want the usual autometer ones and i also dont wanna spend a ton of money on them.
heres what it had (only pic i have of them):
