Man, what's not to like??!!! It's an awesome car!!! If I was going to critique it at all I might say that I would have considered a hide-a-way stereo and AC controls, plus the E-brake handle looks a little far forward on the passenger side of the console but, heck, the car is really cool anyway! Congrats!

Thanks Randy!!!
I always find things that I could of done in hind sight,, like I'm adding a boost gauge and I'm thinking of mounting it on a "swinging mount" so I can be used or hidden when not in use,,what do You think?

I know you asked Randy, but you could have the boost gauge mounted on the back of the blower, where you can see it from the driver's seat.

Well, I'm certainly no gauge mounting expert, :LOL: but this sounds like an interesting idea, Roger.

1bad32, I don't know how big your boost gauge is and it looks like, in addition to all the gauges mounted in the dash, you already have one hanging on the lower left side. The "swinging" idea might create some wiring issues because there would have to be enough slack in the wire to accommodate the movement of the gauge. I suppose you could also consider an upholstery covered apron to follow the contour of your lower dash and mount any additional gauges, etc in that

Better mount it up on back of blower---you don't want to be looking down inside when its making max boost
