    Finally a positive post on my car!!! We're riding!
    « on: July 26, 2008 - 08:34:51 AM »
    Thanks for all of the countless posts of people trying to help me diagnose my car. I started thinking while walking around Carlisle and said "$100 for a new engine harness, sweet!!" and after years of this hacked one in my car, not to mention my recent dable in electronics (its been sitting for 6mo's) I went for it!!

    So, I worked 10pm Thursday Night to 5am Friday, slept till 11:30am and decided i was going to get it going. I stuck it in  :naughty: and took a ride around the block  :burnout: and no problems. So, i decided to head up to Shrewsberry for the Amish Market cruise.... about 50miles. It was sweet, felt so good to get out! I was on top of the world 
    :woohoo:

    So, i just wanted to let everyone know Im back on the show circuit!! Does anyone need a hacked up 71 ebody harness with electronic conversion kit in it? its not pretty but someone may be able to work magic with it. Its free.

    I think I'll head to Marley Station tonight, MEK what are you doing tonight?   :burnout:

    Jackie, I saw Shelby's car at the show last night, but no green Challenger........

    Awesome for you Wally426ci!

    Great to be cruising again.

    I am taking my trans out tomorrow to swap in the 727, so i'll be down for the week waiting for a new shaft and the next weekend to button it up.

    Tom :2thumbs:

    I might do some big burnouts with this trans while it's still in there.LOL

     :bigsmile: Thats good news. I think your headers will be fine if you're running a mini-starter. Im on to install my TTI's and i need to get rotors. after all that, Im gonna stick a new fender on the passenger side and pull the engine to paint all of that over.  :2thumbs:

    So the gremlins running loose in your car were electrical? Great news to hear you got it running and are getting to enjoy your car again  :2thumbs:  More and more I am getting SO ready to just drive my car instead of work on it.
