I have 95% of the wiring completed....Dakota digital senders and modules all hooked up .....I powered up the Vintage Air system and ran it thru it's calibration procedure.......everything worked.......LOL........I just have to finish up wiring up the Radio wiring for the speakers......add the rest of the duct hoses for the A/C and put the dash back in.........I sure wish those wheels would show up..........As it is right now if I put fuel in the tank it should start right up........After the rims get here and I can move the car around ........the last thing is the exhaust system....

Ken, great pics of the wiring and AC. That's exactly what I'm doing on my 67 for the next three weeks- same kits for both. Really nice work.

Everything was going very smooth today.....got all the radio and speaker wires installed......all the loose ends taken care of.......so......I was getting ready to re-install the Dash........In the American Autowire kit there was a new Ignition switch and a new Head Light Switch.......I was going to use the old switch and keep the stock Headlight Knob and pull stem......But.....After checking it seems the switches were wired differently.......Darn.......The Autowire switch had a turned aluminum knob that I didn't want to use.......so .......I took the stock Stem and slid it into the new switch........Cool.....So....I tried to get the stem out so I could install it in the dash............Need I say any more.........Darn......I've been fighting that release button and stem for a couple hours........I give up........Guess I'll have to find out where to get a similar switch......Break this one apart to get the stem out, and this time I won't install the stem until the dash is installed.........Everything just came to a screeching halt.......But.....It was time for a nap anyway......LOL

Don't give up --- PUSH the STEM in just a bit before pulling it....

The release gets hung up just a bit on the different stem -- and gently pushing it in can release it... So keep messing with it.
