Okay it's been while since I've been in here.
The red car will be gone this weekend. I finished stripping and removing the wire harnesses last weekend and I've just got to wrap up a few items.
Empty engine bay:
Wire-less interior:
Harnesses sorted (front, rear, and ECU):
The front subframe from the silver car is installed because the buyer originally wanted it. He didn't want to pay my asking price so it's no longer included and will be coming out. Fortunately I may have a couple other people interested.
I've gotten some work done on the silver car but no pictures. I decided I wanted the non-tilt steering column after all because it's 4.4 lbs lighter than the tilt column (see title). Swapping the lock cylinders and ignition switches was easy enough. I also got the fuel tank cover off, but I had to grind off all the screw heads. Now to figure out how to remove them. Turns out the S4 and S5 fuel sending units are different so I can't reuse my modified S5 one. It shouldn't be too hard to redo everything on the S4 unit.
Other than that I think I've found my new instrument cluster setup:
Speedhut gauges. 3-3/8" dual oil temp/pressure, 4-1/2" tach (mine will be 10K RPM) with inset 120 mph GPS speedometer and indicator and hi-beam LED's, and 3-3/8" dual water temp/fuel level. The voltmeter will just have to be separate in the console with the wideband. If anyone's interested I will be selling my Marshall Instruments gauges.
