OH. MY. GOD.
Spent a solid two weeks going through every limit switch and motor on a convertible car just to get it to work properly......and then found more relays hidden in the kick panel. YaY
Wipers run off the power steering pump.
Door locks are vacuum. Can't buy gaskets for the switches.
The early steering boxes are model specific and mounted in rubber (!?) I had to get two from Red Head to come up with a good one.
I could go on and on but I sure felt cool driving it.
