This was a slow build, aking over 5 years and 400 hours and thousands of $in new parts.

All lights have new wiring and work correctly. Turn signals are on the Chevy tilt column and have self cancelling. Everything needed to drive this daily is in place.

The work remaining to be completed is:

Some of the dash gauges still need wired.

Fuel gauge does not read accurately, believe the sender needs replaced.

No dome light at this time.

Wiper motor and mechanics are in place but not wired. (I have the switch and harness)

I have simply run out of time and need to sell to pay my son's last year at Iowa. (Go Hawkeyes!)
