        I got bored today after track practice, so I decided to throw in the analog clock, and all the blue LED's in the speedometer, clock, and HVAC controls. I'll post pictures whenever my camera decides to work.

            Blue LEDs

            Yay Pics!!!





            I also pulled apart the clears again. I'm going to just swap the backs with the current ones I have installed, and do the insides with chrome paint. They are just too rare.

                    I'm assuming you saw my transmission thread lol. Thanks for the tip, I was kinda curious about the mustang trannies. I talked to silverfox on click click racing, and he will hook me up with one of his valve bodies and a 5k governer when I need it, and advised me to get a 3k stall converter. He also said to use an 89-up aod out of another panther.

                          no updates yet, wheels have yet to arrive, and I have 200 dollars of front end pieces just laying around in my room. Although I did come with the fangaled idea of putting a 351 in it eventually.

                            I just reread through the thread and realized that I never posted the results of the headlight relay.

                            10 volts to the lights before the relay
                            14 after :headbang:

                            Thanks again Dave!

                            HID's here I come! (after I get the money lol)
