    Noticed tonight that all lights, in the instrument cluster and head lights go out when turning the steering wheel. Had the turn signal switch changed the other day. Could it be a glitch in the switch!? Or the connection under the dash?

    Finally got my imported 69 Sportsroof registered here in Sweden, so now I can drive it legally! Also put in some LEDs in my speedo cnd fuel/temp gauge and finally I edited a pic of it in my iPhone....

    And a pic on speedo and fuel/temp.

    I put LEDs in just the speedo and fuel/temp gauge. Cheap single LED, white. This is the result. Although the dimming does not work.

    Should be three wires coming into the bulb socket. Where of one is ground. As said above it sounds like a ground issue. I had the same issue but on the other side.

    An anti wood grain campaign going on, haha.. Just kidding. The silver looks good! It's fun to see how people have done different stuff! Motivating!
  7. Arvidsson
    Thanks! Haha.. Yeah! And I had to import it from the states of course! Well worth it though.

  11. Arvidsson
    Got the clock ticking again..

    ...decided to rip my current black cluster and standard panel out, and later this week put my newly bought teak version in. And also "polish" the stuff up a bit. Since I don´t have a proper garage or workshop.. I just have to use my kitchen.

    Sounds like a good idea! :thumbup:
  14. Arvidsson
    Thanks. I got it at an arts and crafts store. You could try the Sharpie Silver Metallic pen also/instead. I used the UNI just because I couldn't find the sharpie anywhere! Good luck :thumbup1: And here's a pic with some more done.

    Tried the poor mans fix, used a silver felt pen. Uni PX21 silver metallic. The picture shows one ring done.

    I first sanded with 600 grit, 1500 and then 2000 grit. After that i used Autosol Metal Polish and to finish it all up I used Maguiar´s PlastX. I actually did a couple of rounds of Maguiar´s. I think you could get a better result if you use a rotary polishing machine.

    A close up on the polished lens...

    Starten to restore my woodgrain cluster..cleaned the back of it and started to polish the gauge lenses. The oil pressure lens is fixed and the fuel/temp is not.

    Got a package today.. It's a teak wood grain cluster. Great condition, just need to fix the plastic and the chrome! ..I'm still waiting for the teak clock bezel.

    Hi Bryan!

     

    Strange! I thought I replied to you the other day but now I saw that the reply probably didn't go!

     

    I see, cool. Funny to stumble upon a semi swede on this forum.

    Yes, every year there is a show in Varberg called Wheels and Wings, both airplanes and cars. I have never been but this year I guess I have to! :)

     

    Every since I was a kid I have always wanted a 69 sports roof. My older brother had a 69 convertible that I restored when I was kid. So this winter I just decided to, what the hell, let's do it. I searched the web, carsonline.com, craigslist and some other places but finally found this car at coyoteclassics.com . So bought and had it shipped over in December! Now I'm just waiting for the spring to come so I can enjoy it fully.

     

    Are you planing on coming over this year?

    How did the museum visit go?

     

    Ha det bra så länge!

     

    Med vänliga hälsningar,
