The dash looks good Jim! Like it came outta a box!

Seeing the odometer reminds me...did you think about rolling it back to zero? Doing a ground up is the only way I would even think about it BUT. To me the true odometer reading kinda maintains the life story of the car prior to. Ours reads 69K and I left it. It would be cool to look down and feel like your driving a new car. I've read both sides of this argument online. I say just record mileage when it goes back on the road and go from there.
Whats your and everyone else's thoughts??

Never really thought about it since I figured it was not legal. I would rather leave it, drive it 12,000 and let it roll over to 0

I would leave it alone. If and when you go to sell, no clouds or grey areas to explain.

Put mine to 00000.0 when I did the restore. Wanted to start fresh since the car was fresh again. I know what was on it, I put it there over 44 years. Can only hope to be able to rack up another 140,000 miles on it now since the restoration. But, I'm off to a slow start on the second 140K. Only 19.7 miles so far.

Shhhh the feds might be ease dropping (I did mine too )

Finished rewiring my dash with new Year One harnesses. Routed a custom wire set through the bulkhead connector for the fuel pump (EFI), ham guy restored my radio work great. Installed and got all the wiring connected. Fixed one of the heater ducts that I broke when trying to get the bulkhead connector clipped into the firewall. Man that ticked my off.... A few more hours work and I will connect a battery and see what happens!

All electrical items and bulbs are working, received my Glen-ray reproduction radiator and installed it, painted my condenser and installed a few more AC lines, tested my gas gauge, installed the OEM reproduction left exhaust hanger and finished up the exhaust, installed KYB shocks all around, finished up the trunk and body plugs, put what I believe is the original F78 spare tire in the trunk and figured out how all the jack parts mount in the trunk.... customized a throttle bracket to work with the FiTech EFI throttle body...
