I have done more wiring and installed the shifter and linkage. I still have the emergency brake and foot pedals to install. Also we have to install the drive shafts. It seems and endless amount of wiring. I found out that a new blinker control mechanism that goes on the steering column will set you back about $525! So turn on your blinkers carefully.

I did some more wiring today. I wired the fans, the oil sender, and the alternator. We ran the motor for about 15 minutes before it overheated. It turned out no coolant was making it's way up to the radiator. We believe it was "air-locked", once we bled it some more things seemed to work ok. Also we couldn't get the fans to work properly with the Mosely relay kit. I'm pretty sure we installed it incorrectly. And the guages stopped working all of a sudden, so I have to look into that. Looks like tomorrow is a big wiring day.
