In addition to my rebuild question:

1. How difficult is it to hook up aftermarket gauges? This guy took the old dash out and put in a Falcon speedometer panel that looks horrendous. Where should I go to buy? I think I need a custom wood dash with the gauges mounted.

2. How tough is to swap out the C4 auto for a 4 speed?

3. Where would you go to get itmes to "dres up" the 6cyl?

Thanks

1: aftermarket gauges are easy to hook up, just follow the instuctions you get with them. as for the dash, why not build your own?

2: you need the right bellhousing for the six you have. it you want a top loader 4spd, you need a 67 up bell for the 144-200 six.

3: www.classicinlines.com www.autokrafters.com as well as others have dress up parts for the six.
