super swinger is underway!
well today i worked for my brother in law in the bodyshop,because of rain,soooo,i got to to stare at my car all day,wanting to work on it,instead of this stikin lincoln i got the priveledge of working on.since i was tired,and it was raining,i decided to see what i could do with the instrument cluster in this thing.this is a 73 dart,and while this cluster must not be the ugliest ive ever seen,it definitly is not the best looking design.i have a carbon fiber hood,off some ricerocket,my broinlaw gave me,so i think i will cut up a factory instrument cluster(an extra one,not my original)and make a carbon fiber insert for it,then put some autometer gauges in,with led turn indicators,and an led bright light indicator,and maybe a shiftlight.all i need now is to find a rough,but complete console,and make an insert for the top of it.i think i will use the autometer phantom series gauges,and a b&m mega shifter.the dash will be painted glossy black,as will the console,if and when i can find one.here are the before pics,not too impressive to me,just wait
