I got the new wiring harnesses in this afternoon, installed them and now have power throughout the car.  All the lights work, turn signals, etc.  It still won't crank though.  I'll have to deal with that after I get back from Tennessee next week.  The only part I need to be able to start it up are the tranny cooling lines.  Everything else is done.  Here are some random pics I took about 15 minutes ago:




I also decaled it last week.  Those things are a bear to put on.  It took myself and a friend of mine 3 hours to do it:

Nice but change those inner tail light bulbs!  1156's dont belong in there.   The #67 bulb gives off the matching brightness to the small filliment in the 1157 outer bulbs.......

Just a little pet peeve of mine ;)

Chris,

You're the only one that noticed that ;).  Thanks for letting me know the number bulb that goes in there.  I was trying to figure that out  :yesnod:  I looked at that when I turned them on and was like hmmmm, that's not right.

:iagree:  I just saw the posting today.  I have also heard of some people spray painting a light coat of black paint on the bulbs but that is the red neck way of fixing it.  Chris has the right idea with the 67 bulb.

By the way..... car is looking SWEEEEEET
