Whats up y'all.. well I had a Dr. Evil sighting last night. Actually met another board member and again, am amazed by the quality of genius that enjoys these cars so much.
For those of you who have never interacted or met Dr. Evil aka Mike, he's a down dude (note, I'm in full 1970's afro form so if I slip into 70's jargon, it'll be for a second, ya dig).

Now with that out of the way, I met with the Evil one to get some gauges because someone actually stole mine from inside the car... it was a rape, but Evil had the answer.

Now (again with the now) I've started to hook up the gas gauge and here is my question.. is it possible to hook up the gauge in a manner that is so incorrect that it constantly tells me either A) I have a full tank of gas, or (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool.gif) I dont have any gas at all? The old gauge worked so I know there shouldnt be any 'sender' issues (is that right? Solid Jack).

See, not really a big problem, I'm assuming someone can help me with an answer like "just reverse the wires"...

Next issue, Dr. Evil noticed that I will need a new driver side floor pan metal sheet welded into my car soon (I may have 12 months but I'm headed towards a$$ dragging on the ground).. I'll also post this query on the wanted/for sell area.

SO thats about it. Still a great board and I'm still thinking one day someone should get around the US and interview 914Club members because there is a documentary in this board waiting to be told.
