Re: Project Patina Burb

Okay, a few more things done. I put some silicone around the truck tail lights that Rusbuilt put in back in March. Couldn't do it from the inside, so I did it from the outside. Hopefully, it won't effect the lenses going on.

The main thing I did was to drill and tap a piece on the side of the oil pan so I could use the factory oil pressure gauge.

Here's the original piece.



Originally there was this hole was closed off, but I drilled it out and tapped it.


Here it is back on the pan.



and with the brass line on it.



Here's a few pics of what I did last night so Russ doesn't make me feel guilty.

Ford Windstar dual fan



Gauge Cluster in and the steering column with new steering wheel on.

Couldn't get the horn cap on for some reason. It would only go so far down and kept falling out. I'll have to figure out how to put it on later.
