I'll post some progress on the gauges when I have some to report.
This weekend wasn't overly helpful.
Went to replace the temp sending unit (for the gauge) and the Autometer doesn't have a fitting that works.
Went to put the new walker tail pipe on... couldn't get it into place with the spare tire in place....
So went to pull the spare and had major issues getting it to drop. The mechanism that moves the chain wouldn't budge and the tools were all stripped. Literally had to cut the holder for the spare in half to get it released.
Went to install the tail pipe, and the muffler back side was rusted out. Cut the muffler out and found a minor leak....
So ordered a universal....
I did get the new spark plugs, cap/rotor, rear lift gate struts, and wipers replaced.... so there's that...
Last week I was also able to get the cheap matchless double din touchscreen stereo installed. The old stereo was a beast of a thing....
