I have gotten the motor to run! I attached two 12v batteries to the car in the back bumper to test the motor shore enough it started right up. I am currently working on getting a new e-brake switch, key start, and single filament light bulb for under dash. Also I am fixing the horn, the flashers/ turn signals, the wiper fluid pump(I may replace with an electric one form the junk yard), and the chargers. In addition, I am looking for some batteries probably used and cheap but have to be 6v deep cycles because the 12v batteries can't hold the amps. Also I have head lights, running lights, wiper motor, fan, brakes , motor controller working. We are very close to have a fully functional car. I can't wait till the Forth of July parade. Maybe by then I will put an awesome sound system in the thing and really have some fun.
