Hey guysn gals, got my 69 home last weekend and now the real work begins lol. My dash lights weren't working on the way home so had to redneck it and use a flashlight. I have to say I love my wife very very much since she is retired biomedical technician and suggested a way to possible fix the circuit pattern in my car. I finished pulling the dash panel and gauges last night and found the negative ground for the dash lights had been cut from the previous owner and the circuit board copper was all loose from the plastic. So after 5 hours of gluing swearing and what else will be putting everything back in on wednesday and see if the repairs have worked. Gonna also get in under that dash and make sure all the loose wiring is sealed off to prevent shorts. Was looking at the 200r4 upgrade idea but am shelving it since the car got 20mpg all the way home from midland texas. I am sure that means it has a fairly low rear end ration in place since it has a 400 atm. Will let yall know how the circuit board repair turned out here wednesday afternoon.
