Man that helps a lot I am sure. I don't know how many days I have used up running to get what I need. I was just curious how much cheaper it is to have a local guy that is able to do that sort of thing. Have fun hooking it all up. I should be doing the same in a few months.

As far as a battery goes I am going to put mine behind my back seat as well. The seat folds down for access to that area. Can you tell me what I need to do or have to put it there?
Thanks

Still a few more components to work in, but that should be most of the wiring!

I got the rear springs cleaned up for my 66 cuda, my current little project, going to re assemble the car. It will be a fun project for me, Need Dave's paint work to make it pretty. I have a motor and tranny rebuilt already so just alot of little stuff to do. Anyone have any 4" bolt pattern stock rims?

I'll get some pics when I start getting the car back together. Mainly just a battery box with a sealed top and a vent hose connected to it that goes outside the compartment
