Doing well Jim, thanks for asking. My weight lifter son is in your part of the country training in Atlantic City with Homeland Security.

The Jimmy/Blazer is looking SWEET! Glad to see it close to completion!

Hehe, thanks for the offer, I'm gonna pass. Poor thing only has 8300 miles on it so far, I've only changed the oil twice. It'll get a workout driving across to MO this month though. We finally got the house sold here and are getting our move on. It is a heck of a lot of fun to drive though. So far I've only gotten one speeding ticket in it :P

Re: PO has me PO'd

Care should be taken, as the rubber of the firewall grommet tears easily. Take the brown cover off by depressing the inside tangs and feed it through the grommet (transducer assembly)
In case you forget, white wire goes to the engage

Maff-moments away from fire...found this today in a bundle above the speedo, tape was just slightly marked, but showed wire color. After some probing, pink and red, along with some other colors melted together
