"Winter is Over, Time to Get Things Closer to Completion"
I have had the motor placed for sometime now and I am moving through all the other things a swap like this involves. I do this in spare time so it can have some gaps in progress. Anyway, I am back on the TBird and we are getting close to another start up. Since the last time started I have rewired all the gauges and additional items I have installed onto a separate wiring system with 2 new fuse panels. I found that the original fuse panel was just becoming ridiculously crowded and look like shit with wires coming and going. It now is clean again and sits next to the 2 new panels.

This image is the engine installed, but it needs to be updated again since the distributor laying on top there has a new version installed now. I have been working on wiring and interior and that is pretty much finished now except for connecting the main wires, 1 for constant 12v and the other Key On 12v under the hood. Picked up a new battery and it goes in today so those 12v wires should be connected then as well.

I have changed the column shifter to a console shifter and I am presently under the car doing the requirements to have this update working just like factory. I have the cable almost installed then I have to drop the trany pan to reverse the shifter lever to change from a pull to a push for the new console shift.

Anyway, here are some blurry cell phone images of interior with new seat covers and dash area. This car came with a light tan interior and is being changed to black with the tan being accent color. I still have some more changes to complete this transformation. I just am getting eager to have it running now and this is the goal now.
