The gauges look awesome Brad! You mentioned that you'd painted the engine bay and then never showed us any pics? How about some of the car overall, as well?  :bigthumb:

I haven't been able to do much, crazy busy with work and too cold outside at the moment so nothing more new to photograph. Pictures of the car are on page 17 of this thread when I first brought it home, still looks the same except for I changed the rims to the ones you were using.

Good to hear you're keeping busy buddy! The car looks great and I'm guessing you'll be driving it this summer? If I ever get my old heap back together maybe we can call Murray and have a coffee/sandwich somewhere if the covid police stand down a wee bit. As usual, you do fabulous quality work.  :twothumbsup:
PS- thanks again for the use of your wheels, I don't know when I'd've gotten the Challenger on the road if not for you and your kindness!  :thankyou:

Sorry boys, it wasn't meant to be a whine, just an honest observation. If it hadn't been for Brad's kindness, I would not have got my car on the road in time to make my old boys reunion. Simple fact.  :P   :cheers:

Aaahhhh! Mea culpa! And, you're right! sorry Jas, no offence meant, and you'd certainly be invited- if we ever get to do it! Brad could load us all in the Javelin and we could "tour" lovely, scenic Barrie, eh Brad? LOL   :cheers:

Man snow sure went quick about 3 feet in a few days!  So today it was pretty warm so I pushed it out of the garage , pulled the dash, pedals, steering column and heater box . I then test fitted the clutch pedal set up and it fits good. Next is the Vintage Air , shoe horning that under the dash will require some "cutting and pasting" I'll have to cut out part of the firewall and box it in to fit it as Javelin dashes are very narrow on the passenger side goes down to 6" at one point. Also adding a M/C for a hyd clutch set up . Had to vacate the original fuse box and all the plug in's from the firewall to do it but the wiring is a mess and needs all to be replaced anyhow. Most of the connector plugs were so brittle they broke apart when I tried to unplug them. Going with a simple " hotrod" type modern fuse box and wiring kit , cheap and easy....

In high school a friend of mine had a Javelin (don't remember the year), that pic of the dash reminded me of how curved the speedo was. Cool.
