Next Years Power Tour Car

[kwhizz]

Got the forward light harness installed along with getting all the A/C lines cut and fit.....I'll get them crimped tomorrow and installed for the last time....I also will get the power steering hoses made tomorrow ...........



I also figured out where to mount the ECM and the trans module.....I'll make a common mounting plate to mount them on and it will get bolted to the inner fender panel (not too many options as I have to go where the harness will let me)Wires everywhere..........Dave will have to blend everything together





I did my part......Got the headlights and Horn relay wired......Time for a Nap!!

Dave just stopped over while taking his newly completed "Kelvinator" out for a ride......WOW!!.....Talk about paint that's a foot deep and can you say "Attention" to detail!!....anyhow.....he looks at the gazillions of wires that need to be sorted out on the convert.......No Problem he said!!.....LOL

Lookee here. 69 pages for a drivetrain transplant on a &quot;nice&quot; original car. Simply amazing! Killer work Ken. Kinda regreting putting business before Power Tour! Cannot wait to see it in person [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Ken, I'm glad this &quot;setback&quot; to your health was caught early. You, your ambition, and your work ethic are an inspiration to me and many others here. Glad you're OK.

Mark...........Thanks to you and everyone here for the concern.....This is the best &quot;Car Guy&quot; site on the Net.....

Good job.

The Windshield will be installed later this week and another one of those PITA deals to deal with are the windshield clips......the screws sent in the Repro kit with the clips didn't have a chance in hell of working......Again.....these guys sell this crap and we get stuck trying to make it work.....Lucky for me, I have a complete machine shop to play with, but the average guy in his garage would be screwed trying to fix this little problem......Anyhow, here's a before and after of the screws......





Screwed in.............



Clip installed..........



I also got all the A/C lines finished and installed along with the heater hoses........I ordered some of those heat shrink clamps this time.........we will see how good they work.....






I also got the ECM and the TCM mounted on the inner fender panel.....



The list of things to do is still long......but, it's getting shorter...

look at that knot of wires by the MC let me at em LOL

[napa68]

The clamps work awesome. They are a PITA if you have to remove something. I started to use them on most everything that is not a resto.

Looks good Ken!

Yeah.. hide those wires. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
