You're a better man than I, as I despise wiring. Love the swap and that it's just a powertrain swap and not a full body off resto. Pretty cool change.

Getting closer again...
Got the Ignition switch wired up.... Turned the key and if there was gas in the tank it would have started...
LOL..... The last batch of wires you see are the wires required to hook up the Head Light switch along with all the extra wires included in the universal kit that will be removed...
.. Getting closer.....

Even though it seemed like a good idea at the time, I decided to replace the two small 12" fans with a two speed 17" fan for some serious air movement...
Done...
Got all the wiring finished except for the radio, A/C and other under dash items......Got the relays installed for the Radiator fan..... A lot of work but not much to see.....LOL

Can't get the video to upload to Photobucket, but...…… Put some gas in it and it cranked over for 5 seconds till it built up fuel pressure and it started right up...….. Going for exhaust on Monday, …..… Still got one issue yet to be resolved..... Can't get a brake pedal..... It's just off the floor.... Hummm…… Bled the system many times along with the Master...….. Just can't get it to be normal....

Well..... The car is gone for the time being.... It's at the exhaust shop now...….. still waiting for the Radio to come back from being upgraded and the gage cluster being upgraded by Dakota Digital which is scheduled to be shipped in the middle of June...….So... Since the car was brought over, we added Power Steering, eliminated the stock Gas tank and replaced it with a 26 Gallon Ricks Tanks stainless unit, added the GM LS3 480 H.P./ 4L70E Trans Connect and Cruise package, rewired the entire car, added Vintage Air Heat A/C system, rebuilt the trans tunnel, added the Hydro-Boost system, still some work needed to be completed before Jeff and Judy will be able to enjoy their New car...…. LOL...…I have a video of starting the car for the first time but for some reason I can't get it to load on Photo Bucket…… Darn...…... Here are some pic's of when the car arrived and when it departed...…
