I think its the fiber optic cable that goes to the shift indicator on the top of the column...

Re: Mulk's 8-Lugger

Thanks guys, I appreciate you checking-out my build, and the help and encouragement along the way.

Rich - the fiber optic idea makes sence. It had a Flaming River column in it when I got it (weird custom mod to do, with nothing else really changed) and it has it's own light source

Rick - glad you enjoyed the comedy. My life is a swirl of sarcasm, so I like sharing my mishaps and adventures along the way. Also, I think I'm gonna run the trim, and use the body-clips to hold it all on. The trim is in decent shape, other than a few holes prom where the prior owner screwed the trim back on. I think I'm gonna scotch bright all of it, and go with a stainless look

Re: Mulk's 8-Lugger

glad to hear it your burb with all the trim like in your avatar looked bad ass! and with the trim gone it looks a little different... you wouldnt know it through a computer but i have alot of fun and jokes and sarcasm with my build its just a great experience that you just gotta have fun with while your doin it.

Re: Mulk's 8-Lugger

Gauges look great Eric!
I have often wondered what the lower right blank gage face, next to the steering column is for?

Re: Mulk's 8-Lugger

Thanks Scott. I was hoping to get a complete camaro cluster, and was gonna put the clock in the last spot next to the column, but couldn't find one for the right price. I work for the state, so I'm a cheap ass, and wouldn't pony-up the cash!
