well since we have a trip to do i figured i had better get my gauges working , i had my speedo rebuilt, i will be installing a 3:23 real gear and i have the gear for the tranny /speedo , i finally found a factory tach with new electronics that actually works with my msd ignition,and a tach adaptor,so that now works, i just ordered a quartz clock conversion, i will install that tomorrow, oh yea i also put in 1100 watts of stereo,with a new head unit that has hd radio/cirris/xm radio,cd player and a hook up for ipod/memory stick/6 speakers,it ROCKS,here is a pic of the mess i actually have alot of it put back ,but it will be back on the road tomorrow, i cant wait to get some miles on this thing so i know it will make it :biggrin: i also made a custom face plate for the head unit :thumbsup:

Speaking of Trower. He was the cool dude back when I was a stoner. My buds all listened to him. "Bridge of sighs" was for the late night mellowing mode though. :s006:

Now Led Zep, "Tramped under foot", "Rock and Roll" and "Boggie with Stew" were premix for the evening partying. :fight: Then a little ZZ-Top "Tush" for the drive into town. (still got the 8 track)

As a suggestion for Your trip, maybe some Golden Earring "Radar Love" or Moly Hatchet, "Flirtin with disaster". Them songs really get things movin. :thumbsup:
