Wiring day, Does this look right to you?

 

[Indycars]

Looks damn good to me! hehehe !!!
Wish I was there helping. What do you think PotVinGuy ???

Are you wiring from memory or a wiring diagram ?
What are you using for multi-pin connectors ?

Looks damn good to me, this stuff gives me a hardon

Gives me the heebie-jeebies!

Always an interesting part of the build, can use up quite a few days getting everything just how you want it. Keep up the good work Jim.
Regards,

I wish you were here helping as well! I bought the universal wiring kit from Speedway and am using their diagrams. All the wires are labeled every few inches and so far, it seems to be going well.

I'm sure that their wiring harness will provide the necessary wire gauges for each circuit. Wish
my wires had labels every few inches, that is definitely a big PLUS when it comes to trouble
shooting at a later date.

But I have a motto that requires me to do things differently ....

"Too much is just enough !!!"

I might get this thing fired someday...……...

Where do I find a connector for this sending unit? Oh, also, I am relocating to Crossville, Tennessee in May. Who lives in Tennessee?

Ordered it. Thanks much!

 

[Indycars]

Your very welcome !

Hopefully shipping didn't triple the price.

 

[DonnyRay]

Hopefully covid-19 doesn't slow up the shipment.

A female spade connector will work.

Two weeks until I leave Sunny Florida for Tennessee. I have the trailer ready for Sally. She barely fits. I insulated the top of the trailer with one inch foam and it makes a HUGE diff. My tie downs are on all four wheels like this.


Here is the front. Tied down to E-Trak.

After it wraps over the tire, it snakes back to tie-downs on the floor.


If it fits, it ships. The tranny is right over the front axle so I think it is the best I can do on tongue weight.

 

[Indycars]

Looks like the car is ready for the trip, but I bet there will be a few more items in the trailer when you head out.

Have a safe trip!

I have a good friend in that area that lives on swap meet trading. Look up Gene McKinney. He is a great guy and knows old cars and hot rods.
