hey ryan theres a guy here in SA selling a 140 speedo for $75 just wanted to let you know since you are/were looking for one http://www.lonestarstangs.com/forum/90-93-140-mph-speedo-cluster-31226.html
You have put alot of work into this and it shows. I know how much of a pain in the ass interiors can be as i just finished putting mine back in and had to modify alot of it for the 6 point roll bar, the battery relocation and other junk.
I have some extra emblems (running horse) at home you might want for your dash. ill take some pictures tonight.
wrong year..or else i would be all over that...pretty good deal they go for 100+ on ebay
only a 87-89 will work for my 88..non airbag or something like that.
it wasent to bad....the dash was the biggest PITA but it turned out good....i really love the look of the black....i just got to figure out what i want to do with seats and carpet....black and black or to gow ith gret seats. idk if i can get my hans on some black LX or GT seats then im going with black carpet.
yeah tale some pics of the dash emblems....what ones you have..ill pm you after you post the pics for prices and such.
Thanks!
If you like any of the emblems, ill send ya one for free. They are just sitting in my toolbox.
Check your PMs
how is the duplicolor glossy black paint? will that look ugly for the interior? i got me black not glossy but i was just wondering how it would look.
also ryan can you tell me where are the bolts to remove the console? is is on the sides and on the dash?

i used the glossy black and not the flat black..i bought both and tried them on a extra panel i had and the flat black ended up being a darkish Grey...
what part do you mean? to remove the center counsel you have to pull up the shifter trim there will be two Phillips and then remove the armrest. there is to covers or plugs or whatever you want to call them. pop them of with a flat head then there are 2 on each side 8mm that you need to remove then that pulls off...i had to wiggle mine a little...then there will be 2 more Phillips that you need to remove...pull up the e brake and slide that portion of it out of there and set it a side..then the other bolts will be in sight to remove the rest....
this pic is when it was in the garage with all the over head lights...
then this is in sun light. at around 6 at night.
it wont turn out as glossy as you think...one thing i was worried about...but it came out good....this is what a org. black interior looks like from ford.
joe's stang(i think)...
his is a little glossy and thats the look i wanted.
It will work you just have to take the cluster apart and swap that speedometer into your cluster.. I did it in my 87..
ryan, some black interior magic crap or whatever you prefer(turtle wax interior wax for me) will make the black shine out alot more, my grey int.looked dull when I first did it too, put some stuff on it and it will come out glossy(if thats the look you want)
It takes 10 minutes to do not even..
damn painting some parts are a bitch some parts wont get the paint all that good... i cleaned the parts with tuff stuff and with rubbing alcohol.but ill tell my dad to help me tomorrow hopefully he can get those parts painted good hehe.
light coats is the key...make sure all the rubbing alcohol is all evaperated before you lay any paint.
btw how old are you?
23... but this is my first time painting somethng
no shame in that...got to start sometime..keep 6-8 inchs back when painting it....read the can pretty much i did as it said.
oh take some before and after pics and post them in here!
