The Mulletbird ... lives!?! Yep, fixed the wiring woes. Lights came on, headlights spun down to the bottom, gauges lit, and she cranked over like she was brand spanking new. A little condensation in the exhaust = some smoke, but all things considered, she ran 100x better than I expected. Smoke cleared up, and I hope to get that rice-burner out of the way soon so I can pull her forward and get an idle sound video.
Might trailer it to the Swap Meet to help transport gear, who knows, with the limited space, I might leave the trailer + truck outside, drive the F-body in and put that in the spot (easier to load/unload a car then to hitch/unhitch a trailer by myself!)
See everybody (that's going, anyways) at E-town April 17-19. Truck's in the shop now getting fixed up in time to make the trip.
Stuff used to fix the F-body:
(1) Fuse box
(30') 12-gauge wire
(25') 14-gauge wire
(8') 6-gauge alt/battery wire
(10') ground wire
(50') 16-gauge wire
(1) new MSD starter
(50) total crimps
(5) wire nuts
And that's just the electronic issues I've had!
