Thanks

I've been driving it for the past few weeks without a dash too... probably a few hundred miles. Had a scare tonight. I was going through a 35 zone... in 5th gear (but just barely, was cruising on a flat road) and I see a cop on my ass... He must have liked mustangs because he followed me for about 5 miles then turned off... No other cars around... NO CLUE how fast I was going

These cars are so light you can kick them into OD pretty early, I'm guessing I was going between 45-50mph. I dropped it to 4th and slowed down when I saw him. I'm glad that cop was in a good mood.

I want to drive it to work, but I go through FOUR 25mph school zones every morning. Cops LOVE to sit at those around here.

Needless to say... it's time to get that dash back in!
