@Cuda70-74 the steering coupler looking that way, makes me feel better! 

Thanks what a pain it has been

  But if that had not been caught, the outcome could have been bad.  I don't know about you, but I don't like surprises!

I have a question on bolting up the 71 cuda headlight buckets. Do i need to drill a hole for this bracket to bolt in??

[Cuda70-74]

Today I installed the firewall insulation pad and made a support bracket for the drive by wire gas pedal. I still need to reinforce it and im using the factory gas pedal holes.

I started working on my doors by repairing the dents with my harbor freight stud welder dent repair kit. I also put in my rear window track and tried to find the gold paint but it seems alot darker.

I have a question about the stock gauges. Are they reliable and do they read accurately? Would like some feedback so ill know if i have to upgrade them.

I had redline gagues in SoCal rebuild mine.  Not cheap.  He told me to buy their stuff if I didnt have him restore my gauges...https://forum.e-bodies.org/interior/6/rallye-gauges-on-cuda/5439/

Lots of folks have had good luck with Dakota gauges.

Thanks for the links. I think im going to use the Autometer gauges like i did in my mustang. Its alot cheaper

[Cuda70-74]

Clean up the headlight bucket and painted them. Anybody know what grease should be use on the window regulator??

[JS29]

Synthetic grease dose not dry out! I think that is what break caliper grease is.

Thanks again. I owe u drink

Got my headlight in today but its been too cold to work on the car. Im also deciding on which side i want the halos to light up on.

[JpRngr]

So, are you using 4 identical bulbs with halo's or are you just using 2 halo's and 2 others? I've been trying to figure out what I want for my high beams to go with my LED outters on my Challenger. It's funny turning on the high beams and they're a dim yellow, compared with the bright white of the low beams.
