You're making great progress tearing through your "fixes". Car is looking better and better every day....

Hope the info on the body kit choices was helpful....

Thanks Duck,
The kit info was helpful. I called but he is temporarily out. I was trying to buy some poly parts from a member here but that did not work out. The guys inline won't have the one i want for 6 weeks. That is actually better as I just spent a ton on parts and need to recharge for a month anyway.
Thanks Again Man!

The first SC I almost got was this year/color scheme! One of my favorites honestly, you are making great progress with it. Nice to see the original rear bumber/stock sides/tails. Keep it up man

Ahh the beauty of de-ricing a car. Coming along nicely, looks much better.

buy a power probe or multimeter and get to work, first turn on the lights and see which wire/wires gets voltage with headlights on so you know that is your running light wires, then hit the brakes and so on.

MDSC,
Thanks for chiming in. I actually fixed it that way about a page ago. The multimeter was the key no doubt.

Thanks again,
New problems now. Installing Goodridge SS lines were a PITA!
I broke the bleeder valve on the rear caliper.
This ride keeps me busy and learning............ And spending........

Now I know what I'm doing tomorrow.

Take the caliper off put a piece of wood between the pads so when you pump the piston dosent come out . You will need 2 people . One person pumping , another holding the caliper with the hose banjo bolt pointed straight up . Pump the brakes use the hose bolt like a bleeder screw . Reinstall caliper and you're done
