                        In between the strip down i worked on some interior stuff. Rebuilt the cluster with new gears, rings and paint. Polished the lens, matched the miles to the motor and went with a 9k tach centered.

                        If you don't mind me asking. Where did you get the trim rings for the cluster?

                          I get all my trim rings off ebay and usually pay around $13. They come in the standard aluminum finish but these ones i ended up painting red.

                            Awesome thanks. I'm going to have my cluster apart again soon and I'm going to do something similar.

                              At this point im pretty much caught up with where im at on the car. Found some random photos of the small stuff i did.

                              All new brake lines bent and flared

                              had to extend the filler neck to accommodate the box fender. Purchased a second hose and cut the middle section out, hopefully it holds up.

                              nice and fresh paint + backup camera because why not. My car came with 2 different keys so while everything was being painted and rebuilt the 3 exterior lock cylinders and matched them to 1 key.

                                I've been slowly working on my trunk setup as i want to have a clean area with usable space. Added some sound deadening material and cut a new floor. The only pieces exposed will be the tank and management. Amp, comps, soft lines and wiring will all be tucked into the the spare wheel well.
