So I was able to get the front lights wiring installed yesterday along with the parking lamps. Now everything is working perfectly. The issues were, on the left side, a badly corroded bulb/socket in the parking lamp which was causing left side markers to be very dim and the turn signal indicator to turn on with the headlight switch. On the right side, I hade a broken wire in the harness where the right parking lamp plugs in. This caused the right indicator light to turn on with the headlight switch and the rear marker to not work. This allowed me to install the gauges and dash along with the steering column. I also cut the front carpet to fit, installed the kick panels, and hooked up the front speakers again. Today, I installed the driver seat and sill plate. I also removed the upper door trim and painted it. Will reinstall it tomorrow with new lock knobs. Technically I could have driven it today, but no plates or radiator overflow line yet. yet to do is finish the passenger side front seat belt and install the seat, install the catch can and overflow hose for the radiator, and install the rear valence and bumper. That’s it as far as assembly work goes. I do have some cleaning to do though.

Funny...the shortened title on the main forum listing is "Who has an aftermarket bra"...

Cleaned and ready to head out Monday morning.

Well if you can pick it up cheap enough and if it has parts that you need / want for your car or a future project then try to scoop it up. Its really IMHO not worth saving but that is your call. I recently ran across what I'm pretty sure is a 69 GT car about 10 miles from my house and on my first visit I noticed a LOT of really good stuff and got excited, but when I revisited the car during the day and chopped down a few bushes I saw that it was only worth the parts that I wanted / Needed .... Mainly a 100% Complete Fold down seat kit with untouched trap door and all the brackets, along with a Tilt Steering column..... The guy that owned the car died and his mother was now in possession of it and she was not at all happy when she pulled up and saw me inspecting it. I'm sure it held some sentimental value to her, but after my inspection I quickly saw that it was a Rotted shell that apparently had the clock catch fire at some point in its life and had burned the dash out b4 it was extinguished. Long story short... If its a good M2 front kit and good rear kit and has a nice 9" and host of other good useable parts, take 1k cash with you and tell him all ya have is 1000 bucks and it needs WAY more work than its worth LOL
