IT IS ALIVE !!!!!!!!

Well, I finally have the electrical working thanks to Steve Parker at Westport Auto. It is also running very well. Steve actually got the horn working too. He said I just had a couple of wires crossed, man is that frustrating. I still need to get the lighter working. My wiring harness was made for a generator so I had to splice it to fit the alternator.






Here's the stainless steel bumpers I ordered from Harrington's from Vietnam.
They look great! I just had to notch the bumpers spacers and buy lots of assorted nuts and bolts to get them on the car. I used the bumper rubber kit to mount them. I decided to put the back up lights on the bumpers. I didn't use the tubular supports, just the brackets and mounted to the side of the car's fenders. They seem very sturdy. They cost a little less than $1100. Not cheap but still cheaper than rechroming and less hassle.







The car is at the painter's now. He is going over the whole car to get out all the scratches, swirls, drips, etc... It will probably be the end of November before I get the car back. I will update the pictures. I 'm trying to decide how to replace the interior. I have been looking at the Procar seats/interior kit from Scat. I will go with tan/ beige look.
