Well it's been a long time since I've posted here. Life definitely caught up with me but I'm still ever so determined to drive my 68 someday. As fate would have it, my wife and I are expecting our 2nd baby now.
This has been a great excuse to put the project into overdrive and bust out the big guns! I've now been able to find a very qualified person to tackle my wiring and get the whole car rewired. After inspecting the original harness and the mess someone made before me, we've determined it's best to not use it.
We will be using a new painless style kit made by Racers Inc using the "Black Box". I know these kits are far from painless, but again - my wiring guy will take care of the wiring for me.
This would be a huge step in getting the car on the road. Once I'm able to install that dashboard and plug everything in, nothing will be stopping me from making the car move under its own power! We finished installing all new brake lines not too long ago. The system still needs to be filled up and bled, as well as bench bleeding the MC. All in all, I'm feeling better than I've felt in a long time about getting this baby back on the road.
