            Just remember, the sooner you start driving it, the sooner it starts rusting!

            Leave it in your garage and keep working on it.

                Whats a few more hours of work to do it the way you want.

                Yeah I know the feeling of wanting to get it done.

                  are these old dashes easy to get ahold of? If so i agree get one and let me know how it goes. if/when i get on i will want to do the same thing, if the waggy doesn't already have it.

                      I have really considered this. But I am really not sure if I can adapte everything to work with the old gage.
