So after about three weeks of just letting it sit and not wanting to mess with it anymore, I decided this morning to give it one more go.

I was looking at some before and after pics of the car's wiring I realized the power wire to the coil was unhooked in the car. I hooked it back up and the car runs fine now. Charging system works, and so does everything else that needs to work. Guess with all the frustration I missed that wire.

Gonna finish cleaning up the wiring and start on the power windows and locks. Once that is worked out, and the flywheel gets replaced, it's off to paint and body. Then the beast will be ready for the street/strip.

Just had to share the good news.

Eh its a project car. I cant drive it right now anyways cause of the wrong flywheel. I just didnt feel like messin with it those 3 weeks.

hey what are you doin with the pwoer windows and locks exactly? My switches where cut off, so I need to figure out how to rewire all that stuff, so if you got any info that could help me out I'd appreciate it.

I'm just gonna figure out if there are cut wires or if the switches/motors are bad. None of it works right now. But I havent done anything yet.

I had to fix mine, just keep in mind only one of the wires is hot make sure that ones in the right place

might also want to check fuses. I know that theres a fuse that controls power mirrors and some other things. Might be an option to look at.

I get those kinda days to. When you give up and you just dont feel like working on it because you dont know whats wrong. Then after resting and thinking about it you finally figure it out.

lookin4astang

Yep. That is where I was at. Didnt get a chance to look at the wires anymore, but the fuses are all good.
