Stereo

Tonight I got the crossover and the 4 channel amp mounted under the front seats.  The wires were already in place but I did clean them all up and wire tie everything.  Tomorrow I will run power to the amp behind the back seat.  Then I need to make a package tray and mounts on the front firewall for the speakers up there.

Center Console

Over the weekend I was able to get the gearshift disassembled and re-greased.  I also polished the handle while I had it apart.  The lights in the gauges are also hooked up now.  Finally I sprayed a little rattle can red on the face of the console, just to see what it will look like.  The audio cables will be here tomorrow, so the stereo will be done very soon.

Center Console

With the new engine, I wanted to make sure I have a set of gauges to keep track of what is going on inside the motor.  So I took the time to run the wires for them as well as the power for the radio last night.  I also ran the reverse wire for the radio so I can put in a backup camera at some point and have it automatically come on when I put the car in reverse.

Engine Install

The engine is in the car and the top side is all done!  The only 2 things left to do are install the muffler and clean out the gas tank before hooking up the last of the fuel line.  I even took the time to run all the wires for the gauges and warning lights neatly.  So the back side of the motor and the under side of the package tray looks nice too.
