my buddy insisted on taking pics of what little bit i did today. man was it nice out!! so ya some progress.....

yeah didn't resize them don't care

can't get the fan controller to work right

so i might just wire the fans in to a switch or something

kinda bummed about that though

this was on the car when i bought it. i swear

of course there is no shots of everything tucked neatly and wire loomed

freakin kids! whatever maybe a couple more shot tomorrow
i'm going to pull out the seats so i can replace the headliner a little easier. i will also paint the console and a couple more dash pieces. i guess i'll keep updating this thread with more restoration and installation

i have a whole interior to swap in and some more parts on backorder

first off

for not resizing the pictures.

it will never run again

bubba428 · 04-18-2009, 10:52 PM

dude....you look like one of those 70s jam band drummers...f-n hippy

Mike · 04-18-2009, 10:53 PM

buy a dang soldering iron

madness410 · 04-18-2009, 10:56 PM

sweet pics...lovin the sticker on the amp hahah

sweetbmxrider · 04-18-2009, 11:14 PM

it actually did run

i was surprised! i am waiting for my wideband before i let someone test drive it. adjustable timing controller sketches me out

i absolutely hate soldering cuz i suck at it hahaa i really should have shrink wrapped it though instead of wrapping e-tape around the connections. i'm regretting that already.

i'll probably get a hair/beard cut soon, just haven't really looked in a mirror lately

thanks yeah that sticker is sweet bonzo had it as his sig for a bit.

NJ Torque · 04-19-2009, 12:19 AM

whos the hobo working on the car? LOL.

LTb1ow · 04-19-2009, 12:24 AM

I volunteer to test drive it, lemme know when you get your backordered parts from Dave.

Looks good. How did the MSD wiring go?

Round two tmmr? Ehhh?

NastyEllEssWon · 04-19-2009, 02:04 AM

haha girly men wear gloves

sweetbmxrider · 04-19-2009, 10:23 AM

McClane!!! yesss!!!!

i don't get carded anymore so people don't give me **** about having an id and no license since that matters i guess

wiring the msd was so easy. i just went one at a time and cut the end off of the original wiring so i had a colored pigtail going to each connection under the hood. i have to call dave, that sumbitch!

she doesn't like it when my fingers are dirty

BigAls87Z28 · 04-19-2009, 02:13 PM

I was gunna ask too. I thought there was some sort of super sekret hover craft mode you were installing.

transmaro93 · 04-19-2009, 05:28 PM

he doesn't have a drivers licenses you think he can get a hover craft license??

sweetbmxrider · 04-19-2009, 07:13 PM

i am going to have my msd boxes and probably my amp under the rear delete boxes so i want to make sure they stay cool otherwise i won't have ignition

freakin fan controller won't work so i guess i'll just wire them to the cig lighter. they should be pretty muffled between the boxes/carpet/sail panel and the radio/exhaust.
