Auto Dynamix has been extraordinarily busy, so that's a great thing! Down side was that my car was getting put on the back burner. My buddy Dave was trying to keep cost down and working on wiring during slow times or after hours.

With that said, I couldn't keep my booger fingers off of my car. I've decided to push the wiring as far as I possible can go. If I hit a stopping point Dave/Nick (shop owners) said they would point me in the direction for completion. With that said, I jumped into the thick of it all. This weekend I located my wiper assembly... well... most of it ... and hooked it up. I had to do some hardware store runs for some bolts/nuts but that's nothing new.

Accusump has been wired up. Power had to go all the way back to the car and get tied into the Leash Relay. A ground was ran to a previous ground spot which I pulled off the BCM wiring ground and put that in a more manageable spot. I added air to the back of the Accusump but I noticed the pressure gauge went down after a while. I'm going to hope that the valve is in an open position and the air went to the crank case. I guess we shall see.

All the OE wiring has been taped off so it's manageable. Passenger headlight and side marker have been tucked. Loom will need to be put on down the road. I'm not happy where the brake lines are at right now so I'm going to need to break the lines to run them differently. To be clear, I didn't leave the lines up top. A younger mechanic in the shop bleed my brakes and let it sit up there. Not sure why. What ever. I'm not mad.

Mold update... I went hard on an poly resin that has some fiberglass in it. I need to inject some more resin into the feet of the mold and put a few more layers of fiberglass on the back. After that is done I will need to drill the back side of the mold and hit it with air to release. Not terrible excited about that but atleast there will be one part that comes out of the mold (not the last either).

New radio came in, but I need to have iDatalink so I can use the steering controls. The car will also have an anti theft device installed somewhere annoying... Not going to post where that install is going. lol

- EDIT I'm going to swap the back hauling water lines to nice aluminum tube down the road.
