new Dakota digital gauge wiring controler great product with lots of options.
I hate working under the dash!
decided as long as we are going to be tortured we might as well work on the vintage air and heat box as well.
adding some insulation to the floor. been driving the car for years with bare steel floor this should help!

wow were does time go another season coming close to an end. Racked up almost 3,000 miles since all the upgrades in june pulled the camper with it and the family 4 times the summer and it gets 15mpg pulling the camper and talk about effortless pulling! I really feel sorry for the guy in the newer mustang that wanted to race when we had the camper on the back and lost! LOL. the look on that guys face was priceless.!!!!! gotta dig up some more picts.

ended up picking up a sweet deal on some tsw rims that I just could not pass up so I will be using these on the belair next season looking for some different tire sizes to use to get some more grip for next season.
This is what they look like on the chevelle rear with a 14" rotor I love this look

Well looks like another season of awesomeness comes to a end. going to put the Belair away for the winter because if it is in my line of sight I will be forming every detail in my head and I would like to focus on the Chevelle this winter so if luck will be on our side I will throw the go pros on the car for a couple of street pulls before it goes to the deep freeze for winter.should have some video in about a week so stay tuned.

ended up getting the car out of storage early to display the car for MSRA. at the MPLS. auto show. it will be on display there till next sun.if you have spring fever and need to get out of the house as bad as I do go check out some new and old cars there. It was a bit dicey driving the car there with freezing rain and drizzle no heater,no wipers,no defrost and bald tires but we made it and it is there now. can't wait to do some major changes to the car coming up soon.
so stay tuned for that.
so stay tuned for that.

oh boy it has been a while since the last update and there has been some big changes that have taking place! um well and have been removed already! yea things don't always work out for the best!
reworking the used curb rashed wheels was first on the list.
Next lets make a huge change and lay down some plasti dip for a temp color change and give this a stealth look for awhile!
