scort4life's Pony to EGT Build

Here's my new exhaust installed. I was also busy on the interior and got the underside of the dash painted black along with the center console.
Also installed an Mx3 arem rest, and also painted my gauge cluster. The whole interior will soon have a grey and black color skeem with a few shots of blue.

I was putting the new steering wheel hub on and found out that it was the wrong one!
Damnit!!!!! Found another one on Ebay and It's a MOMO hub made for the car. Next week Hopefully.

UPDATE:
Still waiting on my MOMO steering hub. While I'm waiting on that, this is what I've gotten done recently.
Installed my new euro style side markers and my new rear strut mounts.



That's about it. Been working alot of overtime so I can pay my taxes.
After thats taken care of I'll update more cause will have more available time.

Today I took my dash apart again to see what I was getting into with the install of the 5" tach, and since my car didn't come with a tachometer do I hook it into the wire for the shift up light or is there something else I need to hook to? Any help would be appreciated. :!:

This is what I got done this weekend:

Was a little dead at work today, so I got this done:

Tomarrow I have the whole day dedicated to my car. Now that I have a lift available, I'll be able to get some much needed things taken care of.
WOOT!!

you have to flip it so that it points up and towards the front

Really? I thought I've seen them like I have it on other cars. The mx3 I pulled it off of had it installed this way.

UPDATE:

Had some time this week and was able to do some much needed maintenance.
I was able to get my new moog endlinks on F&B and was also able to install my new strut mounts, and some rear brake drum replacements and new shoes.
Next on the list is to find some escort gt swaybars and a front tiebar, along with a rear disc conversion.

This past weekend I got the interior finish withe painting

All I have to do is get my new seats.


I was also able to clean up the engine bay.

That's it so far.

Who did your door panels? Very clean and sharp!

I did them! Yeah they did turn out pretty good.
My Pony came with vinyl door cards, so it was pretty easy. I lightly sanded them with 600 grit sand paper, and then used Duplicolor Vinyl
& Fabric coating. The stuff is great, no flaking, or peeling.

Car is coming along well - reminds me of the "good old days" when I was gathering up parts and doing upgrades like a fiend.

I'd love to find a set of grey vinyl door cards for the silver car. I love the vinyl in the Pony and I hate the cloth ones. Honestly not a fan of them being painted black, but to each one's own.

Well I appreciate the input. I'm just trying to add a little something that'll
break up the blah of the escorts interior. Once the new MX3 seats I just bought go in, it'll finish the look I was going for.

Got my new MX3 seats installed today!
I also got some other little detail things taken care of, a little under the hood and exteriorly also. Anyways, here is the seats installed.

Looks good! What shift boot do you have, it has a lot of foreskin...

It's a Pilot shift boot from Pepboys, it doesn't have alot of forskin normally, it just looks that way with the short shifter.

Update:

Well today's been pretty busy. I picked up my new wheels I got for free.
All I had to do was replace them with my old steel wheels. The car they came off of was a role over and we recently got the title so I worked the deal with the boss.
This is what they looked like when I picked up today.

this is what they look like now after 3 coats of paint.

You should spend some time and get them powder coated. The car looks really good but you should have a body shop clean up that Front bumper. Nice progress on this car. Looks like a stock GT and the body is mint. Kinda jealous right now.

I would get them powder coated, just can't afford it right now.
As for the front bumper, no body shop will touch it around here and also can't afford it right now.
