almost done with the wiring

headlights, taillights, turnsignals and posers all work. l have one burned out poser light l gotta change, passenger side front.

now just have to ground the dash guages so l have lights in them and tuck up all the speghetti hanging in the dash and on the floor,

seats tommorow, odds & ends and the time line looks good for the 25th. a really cool guy donated a 27 gallon aluminum fuel cell.

l fixed the poser/parking light today, man, something as simple as a ground wire can drive ya nuts l had to run a extra ground wre to get it working.

l would hate to get pulled over on the maiden voyage just 'couse of a parking light out.

probably gonna be hoodless for the week-end, we can't get the hood to latch and running out of time to play with the adjustment. we have a few more major things to get done. [ so the stinkin' hood can wait[ddev]

I sorted that out on mine before it had an engine in the hole.

It's easy when you can sit in there and see what's going on from the inside

she runs

fuel and a little spark and vrooooooooom. timing is one tooth off, but that's a minor. one more seat, bolt down fuel cell.

l may be one day ahead of the goal.


l am so happy
