Re: C2 AutoMeter Dash Cluster and Custom Clock (Lakevette)
Lakevette,
I would do it all over again! I also have 96 suspension under my car with the LS1 and 6 speed. The car rides and handles bitchen. The stock suspension is all cast iron/steel and the C4 stuff is all forged aluminun and was computer designed in the 20th century. It hauls butt and stops like a demon. The car started life as a 427/425 4 speed with radio and 4 way flasher as the only options. It was Mosport Green with green vinyl interior. When I got it there was a 327/PG, 8 tail lights and 4 wheel flares. It was a sick looking green with green vinyl everywhere except the seats were black. The rats had made a nest in the kick vent and started to eat the wiring.
Besides the modern drive train and gauges I have tilt column, power windows, a/c, rack and pinion steering, seat belts and shoulder harnesses, killer stereo with am/fm/cass and cd changer with 400 watts of amps. It is Torch Red with red leather interior with 2000 polished wheels with Nitto Z rated tires. Everything in the car is new, replaced, rebuilt, replated or polished.
I definitely think it was worth it.
