    The funny thing is that it works really well as a glove box.

    My glove box is made out of an old ammo can! Happened to notice the printing on the side of it when I was looking at the mess of wiring under the dash. Here are some pics:

    PS: Taking photos under my dash to get these pics gave me a good idea. Now I can see all my wiring without breaking my neck. Working on it however is another story!

    The underside of your dash looks about like mine too. Wires going everywhere.

    So far I have not had to deal with them yet. I'm sure I eventually will. I am trying to think of the best way to work under there. I am thinking remove the seats and lay some plywood in there so you can lie on your back? I'll worry about that later! Next step is to get some spark to the engine again! mehh
