It really helps alot to have a warm place to work on a car. If thats at all possible.

Hope the New Year is treating you all well! I'm hoping to work on the car tomorrow, any last minute tips/help/thoughts on this wiring harness would be much appreciated!

I second that, heat is always nice, even if it is just a torpedo heater pointed in your direction. That's what I have been using the last few days working on my snow blower motor, #@%&*+*&%$#@. Finally decided I can't remember **** so WTF I am doing and it would be quicker, easier, cheaper to just go buy a new one. So now today while it's 22 F for a high I get to put the new motor on and go on to the next project, I lost all the brakes in my yard plow truck, AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH it never ends Kat, it never ends for any of us.
Kat, just take your time, it will all be something you can use later in engineering, listen to the old fogies who are making the things for a long time. they will give you input from the real world.

I just glanced at the start of this thread, has it been 5 years since you started this.
Great work kido and perseverance I can't wait to see it up and rolling.
And as Formula said it will give you incite into the engineering world on the best level to start out, never forget the people on the floor have experience with making the things you put on paper/computer.

Hey all!
Not too many updates to post I'm afraid, I've had a lot on my plate and I had managed to get sick for a while... again. This fall/winter just hasn't been my seasons or something. Thankfully I'm better again. And I've decided that I will be going to Central Michigan University due to winning a scholarship that along with my dad's tuition waiver gets me practically a full ride for four years. In the meantime I'm hoping to get down to work on the car a couple times in the next few weeks and hopefully I'll have more to say then!
Thank you for all the support, good luck with everything! -Kathryn

Congrats Kathryn ! My oldest sister went to Central, I went to Hard Knocks, but it paid off with hard work.
