Found a wiper motor on eBay that has a working delay board in it. It came from a Firebird, but hopefully it will fit.

How'd it turn out? My wife does this kind of thing for a living, but she's going to make me help. So there's some potential for disaster. Lol

It turned out like someone's first time wrapping a car with chinese vinyl.. lol.

In all seriousness, it came out better than expected, but it's not flawless. Cowl hoods suck to wrap... That was about the worse parts, on, and the bumpers... Lol.

I wrapped it with cheap vinyl because it was the first time so I didn't understand the value in good film and I just needed to cover the absolute abomination that is the paint... Burnt orange with lime green flames.. (I didn't paint it, but I'm assuming consuming drugs did)

But because of the wrap my car finally got a name... Betty White, she is old, white and wrinkled..

I only have wrinkles in a few panels, most near the bottom (again, quality film would have yielded better results, plus I was learning)

Currently working on giving her a LS1 swap, so I bought her a new fuel tank with an in-tank 255lph pump. Also purchased a new fuel line kit

Share some pics of your ride, we love pics.
Unfortunately I’m away from it until October. Currently living in Japan and won’t see her until then. So now I’m just gathering parts.
Plan is to have some start the swap for me around July. I will have them take lots of pictures of the updates.

I bought my Chevelle a set of Ironman tires from 4wheelonline. It's my first time to try this tire brand.
