    Nope it's still open; but the road was dry so traction was uniform. An LSD is an upgrade I'm looking at though. There's an order to the upgrades, it's just not at the top of the list yet

    Today, I decided to give myself some more room in the electrical compartment by removing unused K-Jet wires.

    I got a big surprise.

    There was a large brown/orange wire connected to nothing. I decided to trace it and ended up at Fuse #7.

    Fuse #7 on my car connects to nothing.

    So I wonder what has been powering my fuel pump all these years.

    I decided to trace out some other wires and ended up tearing apart most of the 32-year-old harness wrap. I plan to replace it with wire loom. In the meantime, I think I've just guaranteed that the car won't see the road before autumn.

    My VIN:    6599

    I had to replace the PS low beam headlight.

    NEVER, get caught behind a gravel truck in the middle of a thunderstorm Down pour!
    I'd rather lose a headlight then a windshield.


    (I've got to start work on 6599's Eyebrow)...




    I'm Glad I still have the stock fascia to access the screws on the retainer ring.
    (Although I did manage to lose one screw on each headlight).

    Drove it out to Napa for the day. Hit some NASCAR traffic that kinda made the drive less fun, but a nice time just the same.

    After removing some unused wires, e.g. to the rear defogger and frequency valve, I decided to see about wrapping some of what was left with split loom.

    I encountered what I have decided to call Northern Ireland's Revenge: some of the wires twisted around inside the harness, and others thrown on the side as if someone had said "Wait! What about these ones here? They need to go on, too!" just at the last minute.

    In the end, I decided to simply leave everything as it is and only put wires in danger of being damaged by their surroundings into loom -- i.e., the two that run down the center console.

    After tidying up the garage and covering the car, I came back inside the apartment to realize that my lovely fiancé knew I was frustrated with the car and had baked cookies and poured me a glass of lemonade to greet me.

    Life is good.

    Lots of different definitions of "living the dream" out there... but that one sounds pretty good to me

    No joke, man... Just about every day I'm reminded of how fortunate I am.
