I seriously laughed out loud! Nice one Dave! :hapdance:

And here I thought maybe this POS was on the road but no....:lol: Baby got back was a damn good song when I was 14. I remember being the trap boy at the Isaac Walton league chewing Levi Garret and listening to Sir Mix A lot. $4.00 an hour cash.

That is effing hilarious. :rofl: :rofl:

Seen this thread bumped up top and thought maybeeeeeee she was running

:peepwall:

What he said :poke:

The White Sox will have won a World Series before this thing hits the road....

Thanks as alway Big Mock! :thumbsup:

Google the unrated version of 'Put em on the glass' (nsfw) :lol:

And for the record, my GF says I do have back. Unfortunately that's the first and last time I ever heard it. :D

:cheers:

I'm sure you know the words :lol:

I did as instructed -- the next thing you know - Gwen is in the other room asking "WTF ARE YOU LISTENING TOO!"


HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Agreed...don't expose Stella to that kinda stuff 'Dawg...uh, GW.

:walkingdog:

Hey now, she is running...



Today's vid, looks pretty much the same as last time but I still dig it. Blame the photographer :snapout:

That was what, 1917? Now how did you know that Greg?? :D

So I do have an update. Last few weeks have been absolutely swamped. Tonight was the first dinner at home in two weeks. Next week is no better, but I did take the opportunity to run down to BoS this afternoon and drop off some stuff. Friday afternoon shop BBQ, just what I needed :thumbsup:

Also Matt was out testing today at BW. I'll let him tell you all about it, but what little I heard he's getting closer to being dialed in for Optima. Loved that text!

I was happy to see the dash painted and wired. Looks like guage placement will clear the steering wheel.

The rollbar is painted and we spent some time debugging some computer/harness issues. Learned alot today thanks to Dean @ BoS and John @ PSi. For the record, those two guys are money.

I also left the glass for install and the plan is to get the cockpit wrapped so we can head off to interior soon.

That's about it. Always a good day when you get to spend time with car guys you like amd move the project forward a step or two...

Tell her it's research for SEMA :lmao:

Great news Ron,

I am trying to fit up the dash pad what a pain in the A$$ with the DSE dash, it's terrible fit, brand new and old pad fit like $hit. Good luck with yours.

Cool :rolleyes: I think you're making progress :headscratch:

You are making progress right.:sieg:

:cheers:

On my Brother in laws '69 with the DSE dash -- I ended up having the upholstery shop make a whole new one and had him cover it etc -- $1200 and it matches the rest of the beautiful job he did (rather than that cheap ass plastic thing) and fits like a glove.

GW's solution looks great, if it's out of your budget I found a solution too........

You're welcome. :thumbsup:

Sweet. ;)

IIRC that's from the Grizzly Adams signature collection.

Just for the record the White Socks won it all in 2005, about the same time Ron started this project :poke: :thumbsup:

Oh and I'm a Cubs fan!!!!:peepwall: :bitchslap: :bang:

But wait till next year :topic:

Looks great Ron!!

please share the experience of your lesson. Its good tech. Before you forget what happened.

Thx Greg. These dash pads suck almost as bad as Endura bumpers!

Looks great GW. I'm off to the trimmers for my dash pad as well :thumbsup:

I was thinking more of a matching coat from the Sir Mix-a-lot Pimp Daddy collection? :lol: :sieg:

I can hear your voice in the post :D

Hey Vince! So this may only be a PSI harness configuration and like I said, John is always there for support. My issues are switched fan runs on start up, OBDII is not able to be read w a code reader or HP Tuners, check engine light does not come on momentarily upon start up, and the Tach is not reading a signal from the computer.

Sounds like a system meltdown right?

It's a ground and a resister issue and that's about it.

The car electrical system is currently is ground to the frame and the motor. To test it we ran a ground from the E38 computer to the battery. Also checked the pin outs:

OBDII Port:

POSITION 4 TO GROUND
POSITION 5 TO GROUND
POSITION 6 TO BLACK ECM CONNECTOR POSITION 28
POSITION 14 TO BLACK ECM CONNECTOR POSITION 27
POSITION 16 IS SWITCHED 12-VOLTS

Here's the Autometer Tach/resistor issue.

Ron,

It seems the tension leaves the 'room' here when you finally post an update.

So...

:thankyou:

Is that supposed to be public information. :peepwall:


:D :thumbsup:

LMAO :lmao:

Engine sounds great in that video, looking forward to more.

Why wouldn't it be? :_paranoid It isn't like I'm doing anything secretive to my car. :lol: I just changed springs and sway bar settings and fiddled with shocks and now I need to change my brakes out. Some of this might be able to be applied to Ron's Quadralink.

Monthly :bump:

^ Hey Skippah! :hello:

Updates coming next week, I think :goggles:

(Fixed it for ya...lol)

Cell phone pics included? :flashie:


:D

It was really great to catch up with you today Ron and hear about the continued progress on your ride. I hope your first test drive here shortly goes great. Your car is going to be rediculous on and off the track. Can't wait to hear it and see it in person soon, and you behind the wheel. You're a really gracious guy and it'll be great when folks have the chance to pay back all the compliments you've paid to them and their rides over the past few years. :thumbsup:

Thanks Chris. Always great seeing you and your ride is absolutely beautiful! :cheers:

Hey Ron,

What stage are you at ? We getting close to road testing this baby?

It will be ready Tuesday, not sure which Tuesday, but it will be Tuesday for sure!:peepwall:

Ron, what kind of car are you building?:poke:
Anxiously awaiting.

I'll tell ya Tuesday :lol:

Happy thanksgiving Lenie :cheers:

Next tuesday on a leap year is 2028. Sounds about right.:stirthepot:
:lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :snapout: :lmao: :lmao: :snapout: :lol: :snapout: :_paranoid :underchair:

Which "Ron" are you asking?

Oh Mr. Socal knows which hip I'm shooting from, and a Happy Thanksgiving back at ya :cheers:
