Are you going to sell any of them?

Are you going to sell any of them? Yes, at least that's the idea. I currently have 25 circuit boards and enough components to build 10 units. These first 10 will be built by hand. If they are popular I will have them machine assembled but that comes with some added cost. I also have a couple more versions designed but waiting to see how these work out first. The next version is for the 67~70 cars as that is wired differently. Again, that will be a direct replacement. The other version incorporates a couple high current relays for things like electric fan or fuel pump.

Looks great and getting rid of the glass fuses is genius. A 70 version would be sweet, especially with a few extra circuits for stuff like a trans, fuel & water pumps and fans.
Just saw you posted the last update while I was typing...

I believe that the added two relay circuits is the most that should be added to the stock panel. If four relay circuits are desired, I do have the design below available. I originally designed it for someone else but I could tweak it for this purpose. Would that be useful for many people? Are there other relay boxes on the market that would be a better fit than this one?

You could give those away to just about any amc’r. 😂seriously thats really a great idea and a beautifully executed part. I know its presumptuous but i hope you make enough for the demand for such a totally usefull and nessesary part. The old fuse panel has been a real problem for everyone forever. Genius indeed

Blade fuses are a nice upgrade. Fill them up with the version that illuminate when blown and won't even need a flashlight. Fool proof panel

The 2 extra circuits are are perfect for most applications. If you need more than two extra circuits, it's probably best to run those off their own board anyway.
I've been messing with a 69 and 70 AMX all week that are wiring basket cases and wanted to put stock harnesses back in them and was debating what to do about a fuse panel. Great timing!

Is Tom Jettie working on something similar for American Autowire? Maybe he is working a new harness for early Javelin and AMX but using their current fuse box.

You won't sell thousands of them but I would buy a few.. I am pretty sure that Tom told me the American Auto Wire harness will be utilizing the standard American Auto Wire fuse box and connectors but yours will obviously work with the M&H harness.

I would be interested in one of those stickshifter.

I could use a 70 version myself

I hope to have pricing figured out next week after I get the first 10 built. If they sell, I'll start on the 67~70 version.
Yea, I realize that I won't sell a thousand of them. And I really don't want to do that either. I'd have to sell 10K of them before it would make a difference in my life, and that's not going to happen. To me, selling something like this just proves that I did something at least close to correct.

I think its a helluva good idea. I want five of them and i’ll get em while the gettin is good. One 71-77 and four 68-70. I know how things like this go and want my foot in the door.
