I pulled the code for the MAT sensor. The part is on order.
In the mean time, I removed the old headliner, swapped in the 120 mph speedo and a new tach (which also isnt working), and blacked out all the hard plastic with krylon fusion. Does anyone have any product recommendations for the soft vinyl?

I suppose not. It looks like a screw in a plastic tube.

Unfortunately, I don't know how to solder.
I accidentally pushed in the flashers when I first got the car. It has a screw in place of a button and pulls out easily. I was going dis assemble the steering column, but I guess I'll just get a bigger screw.
I spent a little time with MS Paint:
I'm set on storm grey metallic, but I can't decide whether or not to do it two tone or if I should paint the wing red. The red colors I'm looking at are Bright Red or Dark Cherry (metallic), any opinions?

All of the bulbs are extremely dim, but the issue with the hazards is that they are stuck on. I have it unplugged at the moment.
After doing the coolant, i drove it to the closest part store (Advanced) but they said they couldn't do OBDI. It got dark on the way back and I just happened to notice the only interior I could see was the speedo, and only barely.
I plan on using leds to cut down on the heat and current, red ones where I can. I pretty much have the whole look planed out for the interior and the color scheme inside and out, but I'm having some trouble deciding between a few designs.

I had to fill and drain the cooling system 4 times! Stays nice and cool now though. That's one more off the list.
Still to go:
-Brakes
-Check engine light
-Cluster
-Cooling fan switch
-Headlights
-Tail Lights
-Side lights
-Turn/Hazard lights
-Misc. lights

It going to take a lot longer to get this thing roadworthy than i thought.
I forgot to mention that I disconnected the TCC before my short test drive, but it was still dying when it came to a stop.

I believe the 'burping' procedure is in the Haynes manual. The coolant in the radiator was light-medium brown.

I made it about a mile down the road before it overheated. I need to flush the cooling system. Do 85 GTs have power brakes? It sure didnt feel like it, but after i parked it I took off the cap and the fluid was yellow so I'll be flushing the brakelines

The other 2 wires are where the cooling fan is wired to a toggle switch. It only runs with the switch and works with the ignition off.

I have a few wires in the engine bay that i need identified
1 and 3 have connectors. 2 has a tab that i guessed went to the deck lid
I have no idea what his goes to:
1: these wires go to a toggle switch that operates the cooling fan
2: There is a set of these connectors on each side of the fan, I assume these control it.

Would I need a new ECM to fix that?
