    Nice caR love the hood tach and color. My little Brother wants a hotrod too (got a job at ford transmission plant) so he can afford one now. I am pushing him to get a Mercury Comet. Have fun in Korea Be safe. What ever you do have fun with those fine korean women. By the way they make great wives...........I know I married one.:D

    1badmav,

    The hood tach came from JC Whitney. I dont have a part number or vendor, sorry. That was 5 years ago. I believe it is called a half moon tach. Like the Pontiac tach.

    Hope this helps.

    I could have kept it, but I chose not to. The end pieces is what gets ya. I like my chrome to flow (hence I got the chrome all the way around the side windows, instead of just down the rear quarter windows). The end pieces did not look right with the chrome. The rear spoiler leaves the bottom lip of the original trunk lid exposed, so the trim can be put back on. Again, I have not seen my car in over 6 months :cry:

    Hi, Rusty.

    I have seen pics of your car somewhere before, a couple
    of years ago or so I believe.

    Welcome to the board.
