How much did that tach cost you? 150? with the glaring shift light because you don't know when to shift

I'm pretty sure you could have gotten a new cluster for probably 20-50$ instead of buying that huge tac for 3 times as much. and you still can't tell what speed your going, how much gas you have, your voltage, and what temperature your car is running at.

The air cleaner lower half damn near killed me; it's off a '79, and was rusted all to hell, but I'm planning on restoring my original to factory color, so I needed another one for the shinyshiny. Hours and hours of stripping and sanding.


With regard to tachs, I think it's time to toss this one out there:

Fitment was good. I had to trim a bit around the underside of the muffler...but that's all. Believe it or not, the sidesills were harder to line up and install...LOL.

Love those wheels =P Though I think I like the ones you had before better. Might try to find a set for the FC when I have the cash.

Wow that is so shitty. The night I came back from China, some guys came by in a van and shot out a window in our Isuzu SUV with a pellet gun.

Things like this usually aren't covered by insurance. Better off just reporting it to the police and pay for the replacement. I know a place in Hayward that'll do it for cheap if you tell the guy you're a student.

PS and i do know my w/tempature and voltage and how fast im going cuzz all of those gauges work so why would i want all that for since the stock works

Regardless of what you think, that tach is "ginormous".

The rest of the car actually looks pretty good.
thank you dude
