Wiring is slow going for me. But getting there. Few more wires and it should start. But it needs to do more than that.

Wiring mess cleaned up at the MSD boxes.

Start of the wiring under the dash.

Oil fill/vent combo.

Trans cooler half mounted. Yes, I know it's off center, it won't fit any other way. I'm still going to have to modify it and the grille to make everything fit.

I know this is a HUGE tease post but I got it fired up last night! My phone camera died so I haven't been able to post pictures but all the wiring is done, aside from the transbrake and linelock. Need to do the brakes on the rear axle and swap it in, do front shocks and mounts, and do a final check on everything and it'll be drive-able. Then it needs a windshield, lights, grille, tailgate, and it'll be ready to start goofing with.

So excited!
