Some work on my new '93 reef blue

89-LX

Forum Member
Figured I'd throw this up here, but I used to have a '89 Mustang that I gutted everything from and scraped out. I bought a pretty damn good condition 4 cyl, reef blue 93 that I was going to swap my engine, trans, rearend, wiring, and interior to. Car sat for almost 2 years till I finally had the money to do the project. Here are some pics of what I've done so far with the car. Its come a long way the last few weeks and its almost there:

I'll update the thread when I get some more pictures with some more progress.
 
Looks great so far. That interior is spotless man, what gauge is that above oil pressure is it a play back?
 
Thanks guys! Got the dash in yesterday. Gonna finish up a lot more tomorrow.

I can see my house from there! :lol:

I was wondering what you were up to in there. Looks good.

lol, its keeping me busy. Most of the work is wiring work. I hope to start it in the next 2 weeks.

Both gauges are autometer elite, water temp and oil pressure. LED backlit, and predefined regions for warnings. For example, with the water temp gauge it will be green like ford color, and when the temp hits 210, the gauge itself is the fan controller and will activate the relay to turn the fan on. I have it set to when the temp hits 215 degrees, the whole gauge turns from green to red, and at 225 it flashes red warning me. Every gauge has high and low points to change face color, and then flash and they can activate a relay, kill switch, etc. Gauge also has 7 colors you can select from.

Can't wait for the noise! It's been way too quiet on the street. Wish I could get a car again but I need to save my money for other things first.
