<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-size: 14pt">Back to the shop after 18 months on HOLIDAY from car.</span></span>
I had taken the car back to my shop to complete the remaining items and got lazy and didn't get much done.<span style="color: #FF0000"><span style="font-size: 8pt"> (insert 18mo holiday)</span></span> Since Fab man had to rebuild wheelie bars; I decided to take sometime & revisit Montana. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img] With the idea that I would finish the wiring & plumbing & he could do his thing. <span style="font-weight: bold">SEE HOW HAPPY HE IS TO SEE ME!!!</span> [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] Here we are 2K miles later.

Re: My Supercar
<span style="font-size: 14pt"><span style="font-weight: bold">NOW FOR SOME SMALL WIRE....</span></span>
All terminals were crimped then heat shrink applied after removing all the cheezy plastic insulators on them. Then all the components were connected to the wiring with weather-tite connectors. And of course all the wire bundles were run in flexible conduit. DH [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/flag.gif[/img]

Re: My Supercar
<span style="font-size: 14pt">WE'RE GETTING CLOSE....
</span> Andre' built the new wheelie bars and dropped them at the powdercoater's in the afternoon; And I went back and picked them up at 12:30 AM so we could go to the track for some shakedown runs the next morning. We ran taps thru the threads while they were still almost to hot to hold onto... <span style="font-size: 11pt">And a couple pics at the track...</span>
