When do you leave for the Power Tour Ken?? I'm disappointed that you won't be there Friday but we're not going anywhere....you can come down some Friday after you get back....but you're still buying at Johnny's! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]

Had some turn signal problems that Dave came over today and resolved....I spent a couple of hours trying to fix it yesterday and got nowhere,......Dave tracked it down to the steering column plug in about 5 minutes.......that's why I stay away from things that spark.....nothing good will happen if I start twisting wires......................LOL
Anyhow, got the Horns mounted and working, got the outside mirrors mounted to the doors, got the front sheetmetal aligned and tightened, Dave got the license plate light hooked up...also got the rear quarter windows installed in the frames with the modified seals......I ruined one of the rear window seals trying to install the glass and had to order another set.......Otherwise I might have made it to Rolling Meadows......
Nuff of the B.S. here are some pic's







Note the hidden wire

Looking good Ken - Bring it to Rolling Meadows anyways. Good shakedown run prior to Power Tour.

I picked up the tail lights from the painter today.......made rubber gasket for mounting and assembled them with the LED lights......they turned out like the model...LOL









The car is finished at the Upholstry shop and I will be picking it up tomorrow.......one little bump in the road....I mounted the battery (dry cell) under the rear seat, but there was clearance issues, so I have to make a recessed pan to drop it down below the floor board.......Darn........the new gaskets showed up for the back glass so I can those installed over the weekend........Just about done .....(I Hope!!)
