I thought I would toss my hat in the ring.

There are a few of those (not as well cared for though) roaming the roads here. I always chuckle a bit when I pull up next to one and it is as long as the hood of of my 2 door 6 passenger Lincoln Mark V...Granted even my friend's full size Suburban ain't as long as my Lincoln. :D Interesting that the climate control panel had enough slack to move down for the extra gauges.

Just something to watch for, unless you added a bung for a separate O2 sensor (or they have improved monitoring technology since then). Mine was just a scotch-lock that crimped onto the O2 sensor wire (which I imagine added a parallel load and screwed up its readings into the ECM).

Custom down pipe with bung for Bosch O2 sensor feeding a MegaSquirt EFI controller. No factory ECU. Full stainless exhaust. maxhifi 04-27-2017, 12:40 PM Very nice car! I didn't see this earlier. I have a stock 90 NA, pretty much a guarantee that it's the car I will be driving when I run into vintage electronics in the wild. Very good on curves, but the extra power would sure be nice. Stock transmission? Nice upholstery too! Tony V 04-27-2017, 01:45 PM Very nice! I had a '95 for over 10 years. I miss that car. I like the custom work you did with yours. Fantastic job!
