Well I replaced the fuse block today and put a new flasher relay in (thanks to Ryan and Chris for helping me solve that problem). I was able to get everything working but the horn and windshield wipers.. The horn is getting power. I think the horn is bad. Now the wipers I am not sure about. I will check it tomorrow night. The gas tank is soaking and hope to have it clean tomorrow also. Getting closer. If anyone has a 12v horn and one horn grill, I am interested in buying them. Well hopefully I will be ready for the night show.


replace the horn with a dixie horn, like the general lee :lol:

the horn always has 12 volts (unless its a 6v car) the way the horn works is a ground is supplied. to check the horn simply use a wire and ground it if it doesnt work then the horn is bad


I did that and it still did not work. I also tested it with a test tight and when the ground was supplied the light came on. I am not sure but I think that horn is a 6v. I will get a new one next week.

Sorry guys for no pictures. I have been working on it, just not really anything to take pics of. The horn was not getting a good ground at the steering column. It work now. I got the gas tank cleaned and put a seal coat in it. It should be dry tomorrow. Now as far as getting it inspected all I need is wipers. I will try to trouble shoot it in the next couple of days. Hopefully when I get it running (AGAIN)the tranny will work well. If not I am still taking it to the night show. I will hold it in 4th gear if I have too.

Sorry I have not been on here in a couple of days. We just bought a house and I have been moving (no net also). In the mean time Ryan got my car running a hundred time better. I am not sure what all he did, but its finally running on all fours. It was on running on two cylinders before, and it was hard to hot 50 going down hill. I hit 80 (I was in West Texas where the speed limit was 80 MPH w:pw )with no problems last night. I found what I want to paint on my doors and make it look rustic like the car. Check it out. See yall this weekend.
