That's awesome, glad to hear the good news. And 8.5's?! That's parachute territory, that's insane!! And, just for the record, that second picture of the wire harness gives me a headache just looking at it. I pray that I never have to do any harness work. Ever.
Nice mark. Can't wait to see this thing hit the rollers again. You'll have to let me know so I can cruise by and cheek it out.
Couldn't see the first picture but the second one looks like a nightmare. Lol
Heres a current shot haha !

Oh geez. Lol that thing is on a hand dolly. Lol makes it easy to when around huh? Lol
What are you doing to it? Wire tuck? Shaving the bay?
Lol @ the dolly. Great idea though. How is the harness nightmare going?
LOL yeah the dolly works well rolling it in and out of the garage so we can do different things .We pulled the subframe then realized we needed to roll it out to clean the fender wells and undercarriage so i stood there and thought hmmmm lets try it ( the dolly) and it works great !! All the front bushings are done and we will be doing the back ones once we get the front end all painted and back together , we are doing brake and wire tuck as well as shaving the bay and repainting the bay .The wiring harness is a mess thanks to the professionals who installed the alarm !! I am cleaning up their mess and getting it all cleaned up ! I'll update you guys as it comes together !! This is the most I've ever had a car apart and honestly I am really enjoying it and cant wait for the finished product the whole process is just good stuff I definitely know my car inside and out .I hope to run mid 10 s this season reliably .Last year was a great shake down year and the car stayed for the most part very reliable all of 2011 i had a few small issues but they were mostly self inflicted .
Seriously awesome idea :rotfl: I haven't seen a dolly in the longest time. As for the alarm, that's why I hate trusting people to do any type of work on my car! Glad to hear it's all coming together though. And the fact that you're enjoying it in the process makes everything all the better. Knowledge is everything. Let's hope the car stays reliable for 2012!Quote:
