Finally, I'm done with the engine and wiring stuff and now working on the interior! Was kind of cool turning the key and actually turning the motor over! It's getting closer to being a driver! Here's something else I figured I'd share with the group... taillight bulbs. I know it's not a huge thing, but since I tried some stuff out I had to share. I wanted to try some LED taillight bulbs since thats the rage anymore. The first set I bought (these were all from Ebay) were the 12 bulbs, straight bulbs. The next set were the 39(!) bulb all around type.
So, after messing around with both types of LED's, I ended up using the standard 1157 bulbs because they are WAY brighter! The LED's were pretty weak for all the hype they get and I wanted bright. We're told the old bulbs aren't as efficient as the others, but that's what alternators are for...
