Default More winter progress pics

well, since im still waiting on my cams, I figured id tackle some of the A pillar gauges install..I went with Auto Meter Lunar gauges...which took me forever to find new since they quit making them years ago...but I had to have them since they will match my Simco cluster...and pillar pod is a Speed of Sound unit...









heres a few more random shots of the interior...which also shows how badly it needs cleaned..the car went away for the winter uncleaned...you can see the wires in the one pic for the gauge senders that still have to be ran...but all the other power/ground/light wires are hooked up and ready to go...











Some of you may remember in my last post I was gonna run a modifoed Lincoln Mark VIII oil pan...well I got the pan on, and I just wasnt 100% satisfied. I had to tweak and bend the baffles to get it to fit, and the whole idea just made me uneasy... so I ran up to Summit and bought this..



Its a Canton road race oil pan...Ill feel much better running this..

It looks great so far man! I'm dying to do an interior reface, but the parts I need from ford are stupid expensive! Just the plastic door trim is $50 per side

I've very interested on the fitment of that oil pan when you get it on, does it have a drainback fitting in the front of it? I was looking at a MMR oil pan because I got a blower that taps the oil pan for the return and theres nothing I can friggin do to get it from seeping oil out, nothing serious but it leaves a drip every now and again and it bothers the hell out of me. Also does anyone know why the simco gauge cluster only works with 99-04?

Thanks guys...the interior took a while to get together, and matching the door pockets to the radio bezel took some time to get the color right...as far as the oil pan, there is no bung for a drain back...hopefully my cams come in soon, cause Im running out of money to spend in the meantime!..lol
