Take your time brother. You are in the home stretch and no use rushing now! I cannot tell you how much inspiration I get from this thread among others.

Spent some time filling the shop with gas vapors, I'm sure I'll get an earful tomorrow! I pulled the old sender since it's junk and doesn't work...that's $200 worth of Summit brand tube senders that have failed, and they won't warranty them!!!!!
Went with an RCI float arm style. It mounted right up to the old pattern, had to bend the arm a bit to clear the side of the cell, but it's done and my gauge actually works now!

Yep, the cell is empty which means I need more smell good juice for it! Nothing else got done as my alarm is set for early! Gratuitous pics....

Donovan put you up to that lol!!!!! I assure y'all it'll get done, I have some upcoming mods to do to it though. I need to get said mod done first.

That's a conspiracy man.... everyone has noticed independently.....

Quick, but suuuuuper big update!!!!! It actually got warmer today than I was prepared for, so I literally did likely the fastest redneck tape up, scuff and paint yet! The seat tracks needed to be painted black, so I got em done!.....

It was dark and I needed to bring them in after an hour or so of cure time, figured why not go ahead and bolt em in! It was a chore doing them both from the driver side and the door only opening to the 1st stop (yay 1 car garage), but they're in and bolted down. Gotta dig out the plastic track covers and screw them on. These seats will eventually be switched out to some Procars, I just don't have the moola right now. Lemme know what y'all think!!!...
