no pics yet .. havent had a chance to buy batteries for the camera ... but ANYWHO
started with a yellow safety 1st vette that was baddly sun bleached but not chalky with a fried circuit board, mouse chewed wiring and the smaller board in trhe steeringwheel BADDLY overcooked (melted into the plastic steeringwheel)
DONE!!!!
stock wiring got a one way ride over the left shoulder
a 12V PWs quad harness was put in for the drive
then the lights, light switch and key switch where put back into service all except the brakelights (brakelights work on a switch to be built into the brake pedal)
THEN
after hours of scratching my head and trying to find wires that didnt exist .. i figured out how to open the bbattery compartment for the radio and THAT works ....... got mad at the crappy reception and made a better antenna (temporary till i hit an RC shop for what i want on it)
today i started paint
first was black primer, then flat black base, then metalic maroon starting on the nose and fadeing to black about mid car then fadeing from black to a metalic blueish green (dont laugh till i get to show off pics)
repaired the drivers side mirror then used the rest of that stuff to make mirrored panels to replace the decals in the nose that looked like wire mesh as well as smaller pieces for the small false vents in the hood
YET TO DO!!!!
carpet, center tunnel and peg shifter (older style?) i need the kind that uses the same switches and harness as the PWs ... like the magica has
dont expect much luck on the shifter right away so i'll build it with the switches in reach for that for now then do it right later
brake pedal (gotta build one for 2 switches)
NEED HELP WITH!!!!!!
i need a diagram of wiring a seporate brake pedal with a relay so the power is cut when the pedal is pushed!!!!
