Ken G's Journal

There is so much needed to be done it is a bit overwhelming. What I've been doing so far is to work on a section until I hit a hurdle of a missing part or lack of knowledge and then move to something different. This keeps the project sort of moving forward but no feeling of accomplishment as everything is in limbo.

Last night I installed the front and rear running lights, reverse lights and license plate holder, trunk switch and lights. I began running the new rear wiring harness and found that it did not come with the bullet connectors, which is a problem since the light connectors are male and the harness plugs are also male. I looked through all more boxes of junk that came with the car and found none of these so yet another order and delays.

I was going to install the headlight buckets and ran into another hick up, the PO had painted them and done a decent job but they snipped off the bullets at the end of the pigtail, and had wrapped the pigtail in masking tape before they painted. It keep the paint off the pigtail BUT the tape was never removed so it is a gluey tape mess, I'm going to try to clean them off but may just order new plugs.
