yea i love this hurst! and got updates for today, got my reverse/a$$hole lights wired up and mounted, got my new grill on, got a horn in it and put my stickers on the inside of the toolbox. had a problem today, we were whelein around and suddenly my gas guage quit workin, along with my blinkers and ebrake light, after tearing the whole dash apart i pulled the switch for the turn signals and played with it and it all started working again. idk what teh problem was, i didnt even know that the switch interfefred with warning lights and the gas guage. also think my reverse gear syncro is going out, hard to get into reverse at times.

Nice work, I like the backup lights! its looking good! Don't beat the synchros up to bad, you got to make it to my place next weekend!, lol! I'm no good at nick naming rigs, I was trying to come up with one for mine... my buddy calls it the 4 Skinner, but I don't think I want to go with that, lmao!

yea, since i had no back up lights at all it really sucked backing up at night, now i dont have that problem
and if someone tries to tailgate me i wont have that problem either

Hmmm, names, eh? Black'n'Blue wouldn't work most likely.... Maybe Blue-Betty? I named my 83 that, but I no longer have her, ... so you could give it to her, haha. "Azul"? Dang, blue ones are harder to name, hahaha. "Big-Bad-Blue"? "B.A. Blueberry?".. Just some thoughts. lol
