What Did You Do To Your G-Body Today? [2020]

Got a call here in the last hour from Mosteller Auto Repair. The mechanic found the Pump to Carburetor fuel line crimped (Which I suspected). They wanted to know since I was supplying the parts if I was going to order one, which I did from a company called "Right Stuff" but ended up getting a line only half the size that was needed. Thus I am allowing Mosteller to find the Fuel Line and replace it. It's probably going to be some time next week that I will pick her up. Crossing fingers that nothing really bad springs up.
Good luck with that, I hope they do you right.
 
Werked on paint matchin the wheels.

Makes me jealous it was "more than one day", my quick interior and stereo tear down ending up being close to a year now. But hopefully got the last of it done by getting my door panels finally bonded together and the stereo very close to completed with the wires in all the right places. Just have to wire maintenance them and "then she should all be back together", which is what I have been saying for close to a year now but hopefully true this time.

Then that would be the closest I would be to having sex I guess, but sadly like my like my sex life I never really put it in
 
4th gen F body electric fans are in. Fit well, used a ziptie to hold it in for now lol. Wiring is messy, but it works. Yes, I did have to use small machine screws and eyelets to connect a lot of it. If I were to do it again, I would buy the controller. Took me about 5 hours, I don't wire. I don't like doing it. I don't like thinking about doing it, but I like the results every time. Low speed is all for now, and that seems to be enough. enough to suck cardboard to the rad so thats on par with the 7 blade. High will be activated when I get a temp switch that turns on at 195/200.

I've cleaned up the wiring a bit after I confirmed it worked. They're quiet. I keep checking to see if they're on lol.

I'd peronnally would get some realy bases/plugs to get rid of all those crimp ends to endure nothing come off at the worst time. Then try to get some other colors to ensure future trouble shooting. Invest in some shrink tubes to better cover those splices. To be honest if I lived near you I'd be over to redo that to make it cleaner but I'm anal about my wire work.

I was looking at that mess too. Color codes are used for a reason. As far as I was able to interpret between those drawings, I did not see anything wrong, but I did notice an unneeded redundancy, no biggie.
