Update :

Ordered my Converter today and my manual brake kit so when I'm down in FL again the dash and everything should be mounted, Bottom end together, Checking PTV and if it checks out good......PUTTING IT TOGETHER!!!

Thanks to Mike at Freakshow performance for the converter seemed like a great guy and his prices are unbeatable and read a bunch about happy customers on the bullet!!

Well some progress on the car today......Got the dash in, Throttle cable in, Took the stuff off my other car (Kmemeber A arms coil overs) installed manual brake kit, pedals

Here is the progression on the life of the dash board in 6ohStangs 6oh Stang....

First was a hacked job Sn95 dash that looked good in there but what he did to the car is just terrible

and it weighed 135 pounds!!!




Ripped that out and you guys who know whats behind a fox dash board should quickly see whats missing......



You guys seen the interior painted blue....Painted it black and silver plastics and think it turned out pretty ****!! Going to put my gauges in the stock place and add a shift light in a sneaky location!!




And can't forget the other goodies

Back in the late 80's and very early 90's boxed uppers and lowers were about the only options. SVO/FMS actually used to sell boxed uppers in their catalog way back then. Everything old is new again eventually.
Never knew that, good to know!
