    bought a wideband AF gauge for it..hopefully i can get time to install it real soon here..also re-did the fuel line for the nitrous because it was a bit to a few things.

    Today we removed the B&M MegaShifter and installed the stock c4 floor shifter. Man, it looks really good and hopefully the new carpet will get put in next weekend and then it will look killer. Yesterday and Today I also started to clean-up the Versailles console and get it ready to be painted.

    Fixed my no start condition on the mav... Turned out to be as simple as cleaning the battery posts and cables... When it hit 98* I retreated back into the house, I'll change the ignition switch next weekend....

    You know, it never registered at the time since I was so young but there is something a little twisted about having a guy on a kids show named Mr. Mcfeely.:16suspect

    I finally got a chance to dye the blue bench seat I got from a fellow member. It is now black and hopefully I can get it put in the Comet in the near future.
