Cars and Coffee show I attended this morning. It was packed. And as soon as I parked and popped the hood for the first 2 hrs I was telling people about the truck.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

Well I am moving onto the next project. I need some damn music on the truck. Tired of listing to 8 tracks lmfao. So this time going a JL audio. I got today the 4x10 bracket that hold two 3.5" speakers for the dash. Order the q logic kick panels taking the ones I have out. For the JL speakers for the kick panels. Also order the new slim line JL subs. 2 12". Taking truck Friday to upholstery shop who is going to mod the back of my seat and built me a custom box.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

Ordered up a new steering wheel today. The one I have now is bad azz but it won't match my new interior idea.
Not telling anyone my idea at this time. But I will be taking pics and showing everyone. So if anyone wants a bad azz steering wheel shoot me a pm.

Sorry you had trouble with your FiTech, but my install on a stock ZZ4 350 went just the opposite. It really runs great.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"

Well dropped more $$ today. Order a new dash a pillars new dash bezel a bunch of screws and clips. Just to get started. Steering wheel should be here today. Verified my new dash pad was a Cheyenne Pick Up Parts dash cause it is the best on the market. Ordered everything from Classic Parts of America cause I had a 5% discount code I found!! And shipped dash trim piece of today for a little customization.

Man,... with the "high caliber" build you have going there I would have bet your steering wheel would have been from Intro Wheels.
(or Billet Specialties or Budnik)
Just my 2 cents. Which mean nothing. Ha

Lol. DD will be in the off season. Nothing wrong with my gauges now they all work just fine besides the clock. Granted they don't have all the cool feature and monitoring capabilities DD has.
