Completed connections and mounting of my fuse blocks. I moved them to under the steering wheel in my '00 WS6. Then a test start: (drum roll)



EVERYTHING works! Didn't miss a beat! 8-D Now I just gotta cover the wires under the hood back up with new loom.

I bought this car...

Also, my wife and I are expecting our first child in February. I'm sure my 1999 will be back on the road by the time he/she is of driving age, (God, I hope so! ) So I figure the Blue car will be a good one to pass down to him/her. I guess you could call that "Sharing the Wealth". LOL

Ya that's a good plan, always pass down the love of GM muscle
February is a good month, that's where my BDay's at, lol
Glad none of you were hurt, too bad about the car. Hopefully it won't take that long to get her running again

Played with the Mazda rental pretending it was my T/A. Thank god it has a slap stick and can hit in excess of 150. Not so 'Thank god'.. it gets the same mileage as my T/A with only 4 cylinders.

Hey.. I guess we can call LS cars 'economy cars' now since that's what they list an '11 Mazda3 as?

On topic..

Finally got Fed Ex tracking to find my WS6 stick. I'll give them the benefit of it being prepped to ship on a sunday. Also hammering out details for new filler panel decals on my bird to match my new old OEM stock Sport Gold door emblems.

Damn miracle that I found some, another that the local dealership was able to track a set down and have them drop shipped to the body shop. o_O
