First Engine Crank
Many of you know, the original plan was to start the engine at Thanks Giving, unfortunately work has got in the way, cannot complain, after all its work that pays for this car, however did crank the engine over, and as we all know “it didn’t happen unless there are videos” so check out the video below. She is coming to life, new engine start date 12/23/2010, 1 year after the car was delivered.
As you can guess this has been a great Thanks Giving for me!

Way to go! Can't wait to see the first engine start video. Let us know if you need a second pair of hands for anything.

Fraser,
Way to go buddy!
They delivered mine after they left your house but you are way ahead of me.
Great job, nice looking build.

CobraEd,
In answer to your question:
1. It would depend on what make of roadster you have
2. It would depend on how much finishing the builder did
Simple answer is most probably, you would be surprised what is behind the dash in your daily driver, however remember at present my car is wired to check continuity and enable engine start, the dash will be completely stripped down for covering, and at that time most wires will be placed in a cable loom and shrouded.
