    It's badass when they actually work. After 30+ years, the solder joints in the power supply go bad and cause the cluster to malfunction. Majority of these out there are broken.

    Mine 95% works. I was talking to the old owner who was an Electrical Engineer and actually fixed the damn thing.

    Other car is a 2011 camaro SS manual, it has a big Texas speed cam. Shes a bad girl for sure. There's also a 94 miata that rarely gets driven but its pretty fun. Its lowered on bilstiens and handles like nothing I've ever experienced.....

    But he most fun is the 68 bronco, its half tube chassis on 38s. Fully locked, hydro steering, deep gears, chromoly axles, lockouts, beadlocks and a big stereo. Not streetlegal, it gets trailed to the Rubicon. Good times for sure.

    And the wife's 2019 Suburban, I don't drive it much. Too nice for me with too many buttons and knobs.

    Oh shit!!! I love those original econolines more than any other van... and I've owned ALOT of Van's lol. I had a 64 with the 240 in it, badass straight 6. Then I had a 68 'supervan' with a 302



    I wish I never got rid of either one of those vans:pout:

    Yeah she's been through a lot with me. Recently swapped the 240 for a 300 and a bunch of other fun upgrades. I don't know if I'd ever be able to sell it

    It wasn’t bad when I lived on the coast. When I pulled the engine I fully insulated the doghouse which really made a huge difference
