Looking sharp!
What size tires you running on the rear? They looked quite ‘sucked in’ under the rear quarter panels.

Got the rear sway bar ironed out on Vixen and test drove her today. She's good to go now.

Fill, Sand and Primer this week... Ugh, Hate it.
I wasn't happy with the gauge orientation in the avatar but that's what was in it when I bought it as a roller in 2019. So when I wired the car I just left it as is and ran wires to the 12-pin connector it had. I left all the little indicator light labels too as there really isn't room for much else.
Fast forward to today....it's time to reorient some of the sall gauges for better sighting. And make the indicator lights more useful. And make a new harness for the crappy wires it has. Speaker cord for wires?? Huh?? That will all get trashed and a new harness fabbed up.
There's no speedo cable in the car so the large speedo is just a dummy placeholder. And I have a tach on top of the dash so even the big tach in the center shown here isn't used. 408's don't let you look down at a tach if you've got the loud pedal mashed!! (Realistically I don't look at the top-of-dash tach either - I shift by the shift light.)
New 194 LED bulbs are ordered for the gauge lighting, a new harness will be built for the whole thing, and I'm going to add a coolant temp idiot light to remind me when it's time to switch on one of the electric fans. I'll keep the Line-Loc light and maybe the ignition light. I'll change up the colors to be more intuitive too.
