I put the old rotors and pads back on so I could bleed the new calipers, I picked up a new set of quick bleeders and they did the trick. The $138 rotors at Napa are no name rotors so I didn't was on that. I think I figured out how I want to mount the Fast ECU in the kick panel. Didn't get too much done cause I am coming down with something so don't get too close to your screen when you are reading this.....:popcorn:

Found out the (new when installed) grade 12.9 10mm bolts that I used to attach the front swaybar has rusted out exposed threads. :mad: So now it's to see what ARP has in stainless. I need the head flange to be no bigger than 19mm & they claim theirs are 18mm, just gotta see who has them.

Decided to get a little more sound quality out of the stereo so I bought a 10 inch sub woofer to go with an amp I had laying around.
I made a box out of 1/2 DMF and covered it in an old Military wool blanket I had laying around. I'll take it down tomorrow for a professional wiring of the power lead. I figured a single 10 inch should do for music I listen too, I mean Slim Whitman never really used that hard of a base line anyway.

That's a really nice sub and amp combo. I had the same thing but an 8" in my 06' Colorado in a custom box I made. It sounded great and was just right amount of base for the cab of my truck.

Installed amber and red 194 LED's I got earlier. I had to shred a pallet of paper at Advance Auto, and the manager is a super cool gearhead with a '71 Challenger convertible (legit real only like 21 or 12 made). Anyways, I go in there often so he matched the price to get the sale.
Still need to swap out the front turns, and get more for rear turn/brake but almost there.

Did this on Sunday...

Decided I needed to get some motivation for starting on the Gypsy wagon, so gathered up some of the body pieces from the regal, did a quick throw together, cleaned the bay , and dragged Gypsy in... as of typing this, I’m on day 2 of being laid up from throwing my back out... may have been from moving and setting the hood by myself...
