I think I have tickets for watkins glen as well for that weekend but if not me and my buddies will cruise up there with ya. Maybe by then I will of found some original steel wheels with hub caps and trim rings for the mach 1 haha. I had to pirate the wheels off my skylark so I could drive the thing around.

Nice. I'm hoping to have my notch ready as the Jetta won't be much fun lol.

what do you have to do to the notch?

Wire up the electric fan. Other than that just registering it and that's pretty much it.

I went with an electric fan too.

Yea mine just needs to be wired, other than that the fan and toggle switch are both already in. Just gotta run wires, and put a bypass in.

I should've went with a toggle switch too, cuz trusting a temp sensor to work is a bit nerve racking. I have a ton of money wrapped in that motor and losing it because of a stupid sensor would fry my brain.

You can always switch it. That's why I want a bypass because I don't wanna fry the fan, this way I'll just need to change out a burnt fuse instead.

Awesome bud. Hope to see that badass car up here for the big show. I'm almost ready with the Notch, just need to wire the fan still and then make some money to register her lol.

Just an update, been getting some work done on shit that is above my skill level. My tilt steering column was a mess and I'm also having some wiring issues and electrical gremlins. I actually bought a straight column to replace the tilt with, but after removing the column from the car, my mechanic was able to fix it. For some reason, the electrical problems all start when I use my headlights. Once I turn them on, it's not too long before I lose turn signals, and power gets sluggish. I can say I'm getting really pissed after dealing with this kind of shit for months now and still haven't figured it out. Any suggestions of where to start would be entertained and welcomed for sure.

Well, after getting all the bugs worked out, everything's working, it passed inspection and I got to enjoy it for a couple weeks or so. Unfortunately (I'm actually really bummed), I have to sell her now because I need the $$$. Someone is going to get a freshly restored car that has had the bugs worked out. I'm entertaining offers from anyone interested. I have a ton of pictures for anyone who would like a closer look. Let me know if interested.
