That is very cool. Where did you find that clock?

re: F 600 dash - my version
Are you sittin' down? BIG LOTS. It's just a regular quartz clock, $1.98, I took the face off and scanned it in my computer, reversed the image, then changed the numbers to look more like Ford, and finally slipped in a little oval "Ford" to top it off. It is exactly the size needed for the F600 cutout.

So you have to pop it out and replace the batteries everytime you change your oil? Cool Idea though.Bobaloo2 wrote:Are you sittin' down? BIG LOTS.

re: F 600 dash - my version
Based on my experience with using really good (cost more) batteries, I have a quartz wall clock with all of 2004 and 8 months of 05 on the original Duracell Alkaline I put in Dec 26th 2003.
