Car doesnt crank?
I finally got my car put back together and drove it probably 20 miles today and was running like a champ. I cut it off and went back to drive it about a half hour later and nothing. When I turn the key to the on position I get no power to the gauges and it the motor wont turn over. Its like my batterys dead, but I replaced it with another I had and still the same. I checked all the fuses and test lighted a few power sources and all are good. The headlights and brakelights work. The power windows, radio, blinkers and gauges do not. Anyone had this problem before? Any ideas?

I would say that you either missed a fuse, or possibly a bad ignition switch. Sounds like you're not getting power to anything that is keyed on with the ignition. This should hopefully give you a general area to look in. If you need wiring diagrams, I can set you up with some off of Alldata.
