64 ss
I went and got the 64 back from dad yesterday. I worked on it for about hr trying to get it started. I kept using dad's charger. Finally took the battery out and bought a new one it cranked right up.
Guy at O Rielly's says it has a 3 year warrinty so he finds it. It ran out in September! $180.00 later I had a new one! The battery was so dead it wouldn't show anything on their machine. Oh well it home. I've been wanting to work on the wiring so I started today. Started taking the wiring a part under the hood. The PO decided he was to lazy to strip it and do it right so I did tonight. He installed a HEI and ran a hot wire to it but he left all the old wiring in the harness. I pulled about 5' of unused wiring out of it tonight and still have more to go. I also pulled the center console out and going to paint it when ever it stops raining. I'm going to clean up the wiring mess inside it also. Driving home last night the gauges started flickering on/off so I pulled all that out and found the ground wire was loose, hopefully those are fixed. Tomorrow I plan to take the fuse block out and see how it looks as well. May even pull the dash back out and see if anything needs fixing.
