Now we get into the Chinese Water Torture part of the build... Rewiring the car… But.... It's not as bad as it was in builds past as I think I have learned to think 10 steps ahead of where I am so I don't have to redo things 10 times...… LOL....











Getting there...…..

Getting closer again...… Got the Ignition switch wired up.... Turned the key and if there was gas in the tank it would have started...… LOL..... The last batch of wires you see are the wires required to hook up the Head Light switch along with all the extra wires included in the universal kit that will be removed...….. Getting closer.....

Even though it seemed like a good idea at the time, I decided to replace the two small 12" fans with a two speed 17" fan for some serious air movement...… Done...… Got all the wiring finished except for the radio, A/C and other under dash items......Got the relays installed for the Radiator fan..... A lot of work but not much to see.....LOL
