shoot! I was hoping by using the 66 dash that the gauge would read right...
I'll have to see if I can get a 90ohm gauge to fit in the dash somehow.


I spent the last couple work days chasing all the lights. due to rust I had to completely take apart the passenger side taillight unit, clean and rebuild it.
then I had to undo some sort of trailer harness underneath and rewire all that.

I replaced the cut hood harness (who cuts the hood wire when the plug is right there!!!!) with a good one.
I could not get the lh hood turn signal to blink, I chased the wire with a test light all through the harness, and found a bad connection at the instrument cluster plug, cleaned that up and it all works now.

one thing: my left brake and turn signal work, but are not as bright as the right.. any ideas on why, or how to fix?

today I got the fender and cowl panels all adjusted and bolted on, and found an antenna that looks good to cover the hole in the rh cowl panel.

I got started on some minor rust repair on the passenger floor, and have to weld up some stress cracks on the suburban passenger seat mounts,
