damn sewing machine i got musta been a return had a used off-brand power cord, had to take it back and they were sold out of replacements. 

oh well, maybe next weekend on that project. 

still got stuff done this weekend on her though.


Finally did the rest of the interior bulbs.






ok, so i know i already did a walkthrough on how i did my tail lights. but since i had a bad resistor on one i had to ship em back and get another set. I did these a lil bit different.
