maybe I shouldn't have, too late now
The wife wants to drive it this spring. I wouldn't want to disappoint her. But there might be a bonus if done on time.;)

You'll make it. You've already got a good start!
Plus there's not much else to do up here in the winter!
:cheers:

The front of the garage is 28X30 and the storage area in the back (that you can barely walk thru) is 28x26.

Hey Rod!
I sure did. Every one needed a different thing though!
The rears just needed cleaning at the bulb (painted).
2 of the fronts needed cleaning as well. One needed a splice - I just used a wire crimp without crimping and glue. One needed the backside of the headlight cleaned! One parking light was good and I had to run a new (out of a junk caddy) fiber all the way for the other parking light. WOW!
Short answer is yes - they work great now!

Check out my web page I was where you are 32 day`s ago. But I work 4 day`s on 4 day`s off. I worked on the car from 8:00 am till 2:00 am every day I was off. :smash:
Wife did not like it much. she stole it and took it around the block while I was at work the other night, Now she say`s I`ll bring your supper to the garage if you want to finish my car for me. :mad :mad :confused: :confused:
Bob :cheers:
