Default Still no fire but close

Well It's been a good long while since an up date has been posted so here we go. Chassis wiring has made much progress, the harness has been made and is ready to be put back into the car for good. While making this I had to remove and replace this many many times. If anyone tells you that wiring their car is easy just laugh at them. Yes it is not difficult but I does take time and patience. now I have about three weeks of evenings and weekends here, and it took all of that to sort out the harnesses from two separate vehicles. The engine and under the hood harness is from a 93 Mark VIII (same as the engine donor) the dash bits are from a 91 F-150 (same source as the steering column). I had diagrams for both that helped a ton, now all of the harnesses had been taken down to bare components and then reconfigured to suit what was needed. Needless to say there was plenty of soldering and shrink tube to go around, but nothing anyone with the patience of a saint couldn't do. Now I still have to wire up the dash and get a few little odds and ends taken care of but I'll just keep plugging along;



Until Later,
Patrick

Well, it occurs to me that perhaps not all of the modifications I made are technically 'street legal'

Nothing good ever happened after this statement;
Hey Moe watch this!
