Suck that hanress is so shitty. Luke if you have any questions on the PCM harness I know what everything dose, and the min you need to run the motor with the gm harness plus the fans and fuel. I’m down to like 62-64 pcm pins. Putting the PCM inside, and wiring it into the 2step but can still bypass it if it dies to run the car. whats your plans for loom? I’m only gonna run it really minimal and easy inside the car, but got some good stuff for the engine bay ---

> [@cougarspeed](#): > > Just because a few of you must not remember since well this thread is a million pages but this wiring harness was not done by me. That is what your get when you hand over actual hard earned cash to hinson super cars. I would never do something like that. I am amazed that all your hard work did not go up in flames because of this harness. A lot of the loom literally smelled like burning rubber when I took it apart. > [@cougarspeed](#): > > Nice seeing ya last night Luke. Looking good man. Likewise. Hopefully when this is done you will have peace of mind. Car builds suck when certain things are out of your hands and you can’t trust the work. > [@Studderin](#): > > Suck that hanress is so shitty.

Haven’t worked on the car in over a week and might not till this Saturday night. However i did find some time last weekend to make some garage art. No need to be too critical I am no artist nor am I trying to be. My sister has a studio out in Rochester so I made these for fun while visiting her for garage art. They are HUGE 3’x4’ and I am going to put them on the ceiling. I should mention that neither are 100% done as I am still going to add flames and a robot guy to the black one and the green guy needs a black body on the copper one still. ![http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/DSCF4431.jpg](http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/DSCF4431.jpg) ![http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/DSCF4441.jpg](http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/DSCF4441.jpg) ---

Sometimes the most enjoyable art comes from non-artists. Hopefully Scott will see this and post up one of his pieces. Oh, and ever thought of putting a coat of white over the OSB? Makes the garage brighter:) ---

Studderin what did you try to warn me of? That harness came with the car. But nice i told you so fail attempt. lol fggt Thanks Steve! I am for real going through the entire car. It is amazing/tiring/expensive to build a car this in depth. ---------- Post added at 08:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:52 PM ---------- Some more stuff from powder. Yes I even powdered my boor and hood hinges. This stuff looks SOOOOO good in person. I am going to start putting the car back to being a roller this weekend probably then start making this darn turbo kit. Oh where does the time go. ![http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/DSCF4455.jpg](http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/DSCF4455.jpg) ![http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/DSCF4449.jpg](http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/DSCF4449.jpg) ![http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/DSCF4446.jpg](http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/DSCF4446.jpg) Now to show some contrast of the colors together. ![http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/DSCF4447.jpg](http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/DSCF4447.jpg) ![http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/DSCF4460.jpg](http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/DSCF4460.jpg) ![http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/DSCF4459.jpg](http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn302/ablake211/DSCF4459.jpg) ---

> [@psphinx81](#): > > luke is the man, he looks to do some amazing work. i dont know how he has the patience, i fucking hate wiring lol Thanks, the main problems were finding out what was wrong with the Hinson harness. A harness swap is not that difficult provided you can follow the wiring from start to finish. Being that Drew is VERY conscientious about his builds it made this much easier when we pulled everything apart to keep it organized. If it was not for Drew being the type of dude he is I guarantee you that this project would be a disaster. EDIT: Those paintings are badass. ---
