    Looks like a "fun" project, other then wiring issues looks like standard stuff on an older vehicle.

    Ok here is the wiring kit I ordered, very nice and complete kit, all the wires are labeled as to where they go and 11 pages of good wiring schematics! Also got my new Cherry Bomb mufflers yesterday. Going to do change all the filters today and oil, coolant. Hopefully I can get the temp tag tomorrow and mufflers welded on so then I can do the emissions test before next Saturday.

    I'll shoot John a text. He should be able to beat most prices and install costs.

    Text sent.

    Yesterday I got the new glass packs welded on and couldn't modify the low hanging exhaust pipe like I wanted but I did manage to reconfigure it so it tucks up nice and tight, also did the seals on the drivers door glass what a time consuming job that is. Bronco sounds great now like it has some balls!

    Okay thanks for the update. I didn't make it to get the E test done today but did pick up the Mercedes.

    I still wish I could be there tomorrow, But with the 3 yr old it still isn't a good idea. Besides, I now have an oil leak that decided to make a grand comeback so I have to get that buttoned up.

    Darn, what time was that? Give me a call next time.

    Only person that showed up yesterday was Funrunner (Aaron) cause he was delivering my other big project I need to get done before this summer! Plans are for a suspension lift and 31s to get more than the now 10 inches of ground clearance. Here's a picture of it.

    I don't have your number. I thought about screaming out at the top of my lungs, but I would have scared the kid.
