steering in, brake assembly mount started.  looks like the fire wall need some steel to stiffen it up to take a petal assembly.  everything was under the floor in the 52 running gear.

Monthly $. Basic coverage is very good since I have a personal liability umbrella as well that requires high minimums. I think 250/500/250. Ram comp and collision deductible is either 250 or 500.

Liability $1m umbrella $13
07 ram full coverage $61
98 tdi $42
04 1.8t $38
Gus withdrawn from use $14
Trailer 10k agreed value $8

Lino Reale State Farm in victor. Paul's buddy Steve used to work there, Erik uses him too. Good guy. He knows what I've got and what I do.

i now have state farm (Van Travis in brighton)

ECM came yesterday so i cranked a little on this guy.

hack fired motor with loose wires, started on first try
needed a quick LT1 swap site check to get the DBW to work.  lost power somewhere to TCM module. easy fix.

after initial success and motor fire, mounted ECM, TCM
Cleaned up and wrapped engine harness mods
mounted battery
ran wires for ignition relay
ran wires for fan / fuel pump relay
fixed broken temp senor wires
ran heavy gage starter wire


starts with a key and moves with pulling shifter cable.
brakes and steering seem like there is no pressure but i was getting a lot of foam (had to add 2' of hydro boost hard line, opened that system. 

brake pedal may need to be extended.  steering wheel is BIG
will wait to adjust that to when i get a seat. 


exhaust came.
hopfully the upper radiator hose will come today
need to change oil and hook up trans cooler
fluids
finish wiring
add lights wiring
figure out wipers
mount seat
mount throttle petal
