some nova progress





finally got all the wiring done. I had run all new wires under the dash and figure out what went where in the engine bay.

line lock.don't mind the volts, the battery was pretty much dead

wiring my fuel sending unit for my fuel cell, that was fun



primed a fender too, just put it on somewhat so it wasnt laying around to get dented

Haha. I didn't want to take apart the dash to get to the fuel gauge. If there's a will there's a way!

i don't participate in things like that

thanks guys, hopefully tomorrow i will be stripping the hood and driver fender.

i use wire nuts because its a lot easier to twist wires together with them, i just wanted to run the wires to the switch and made sure it worked before i connected it. i hate getting stabbed with that damn wire when twisting them together lol

Thanks! Well it should be running by February and I have to wait for warmer weather to strip the rest of the car and prime it. I need to finish fuel lines, bleed the brakes and put my EWP and carb on and properly mount the plug wires
