Gauges fully wired and in for now. I don't want to fully install the panel because to adjust and calibrate the speedo I'll need to access the backside of the speedo.

Auto tilt? No tilt ?

I don’t remember what you got?

 

[tRustyK5]

Auto, tilt, early 70's so should be a direct plug in.

Wasn’t sure if you got a tilt or not.

Care if its an auto wheel holder after it gets swapped to standard?

Pull the pin chuck the lever and forget about it?

I think I still have a manual no tilt. But I want to keep it.

I'll just pull the shift lever when I swap to manual...

I pulled rhe shift lever, and kept the “park position” switch for starting. I have to make sure the shift lever collar is in the park position to start, it serves as a minor theft deterrent.

Slowly getting the interior back to where it should be. Surprisingly the OG rubber floor was still in remarkably good shape, so it went back in.



Next up is the seat, belts, etc and then the door. At that point the interior will be sealed up...

I'm on the hunt for a pair of decent short aluminum sill plates. I have the passenger side, but it's kind of meh. My driver's side is MIA.
