Well... I decided how high i wanted to mount this thing, i turned the ac bracket into a mount. Im keeping my AC and this seemed the best way for me to stick a mount under there. I hope it doesnt break. Dark likes it, i like it. I hope you like it! There will be three other mounts so i think it should be good.

Sorry for not updating! Lately the temp outside has been around -7, and my garage doesnt have a heater. WELL...

I was in a time crunch, And wanted to get everything to line up first shot so i decided to go with PR's poly mounts. WELL worth the money IMO.
They are pretty heavy duty. Worked like a charm!












oh, I painted the cradle after knocking all the rust off.
The wiring is 80% done. Im missing a plug that goes into the side of the tranny.
Im trying to find a oil filter adapter that will clear my mount. If anyone has one theyd like to get rid of let me know!
I have all my vac lines replaced, i found a vac gauge laying around im going to rig that in along with the fuel pressure gauge. I want it to look nice, im not sure where ill mount it yet. Im keeping all emissions. And A/C
I decided to replace the lower ball joints. That was just a matter of drilling out the stock rivets and bolting the new ones in.
The bushing in the front were terrible to replace. The rubber was "welded" to the cradle. I drilled around the center, then got an electric saw in there and cut as close as i could around the edges. Once i got the majority of it out i went it with a wire brush attached to my electric drill. Worked pretty good but still took forever.

I went to the junkyard today looking for an oil adapter, i found one but the car is half sunk into the ground and its kinda tricky to get at. I was also looking for rear wheel bearings and found 1 old a$$ car that the books said would work. I picked up a digital dash for my berretta gt, lots of berrettas here. Speaking of which, i still need to make a drivers side axel. Help on that would be good. Exact year and cars please?

Heres the yard I visited. VERY unorganized. lol i like the hippy bus's on the right.


I ripped this off some car too, theres someone else whos working with one too, its a HUD unit. It projects your speed onto your windhield, "star wars style".



I hope its just a matter of giving it power and some sort of signal. I think since i discovered this.. im probably going to build a custom dash using a digital speedo and the matching HUD from maybe a buick or bonny, that way it should "just work"...."i hope". I wouldnt have to mess with any signal stuff.
