OK so my temp and fuel guages do not work. I am getting 12V to the voltage regulator but nothing out of it at all.

I am going to replace it with a modern regulator- looks like Radio Shack has one for $2. Wish me luck, I really want to know how much gas I have and what temp she is running (rather than just feeling the radiator and thinking- not too hot).

Been busy doing the disc brake swap but I did print out the wiring diagrams on 11 x 17 and hang them on my shop project board on Friday. Being none too skinny and 6'3" I am going to pull the front seat before I mess under the dash again- have to pull it anyway to install the seat belts.
I will report back what I find, but I hardly ever remember to take pics when working.
