    Yes ! @ the price I paid it was a bargain ~ most repop wiring harnesses are WAY overpriced and then the sellers whine they don't sell very many , I imagine Chevy Duty sells the BeeJeebers out od this fine product .

    Hey bud I agree with nate on the plastic loom, don't do it. Our cars come wrapped in a felt type tape and is MUCH stronger and will protect your wires alot better. Also it is more plyable. This stuff isn't as cheap as the plastic loom but since we're buddies I've got a hook up on the stuff. I'll bring a cataloge home and let you thumb through it in october. The guy gets stuff here within a few days so getting it won't be a problem. I'll try and find it on the net so you can see what I'm talking about.

    This is the tape I was talking about. It's a cloth tape, and is very durable. It may be a little higher than normal tape, but you won't regret using it. I'm not sure on the price, but I can find out if you want me to. This is definately what will go in my street rod. It is the varnished cambric tape. I'm not sure it will come up directly in this link, but scroll down and you will find it.

    great paint!

    Sweet~ the way you have your truck painted is- well-
    sweeeet!

    I like the way you divided the colors. It gives an already tough looking truck a tougher look! I assume since you put a chrome grill on it, this is only a temporary look?
    Whatever- I know you have fun twisting heads with it!

    WELCOME by the way- you have a great site as well. M-A-N-Y pictures- just like we like 'em!;)

    the CD "color by number" harness

    A couple of pictures from Thunder's wiring, our very first try, and last. SWMBO refers to these photos as "Truck Porn".

    That's what I'm talking about! It's what you'll get from CP. Simple enough for third grade students like me.;)

    Ordered it today!

    Or should I say, SWMBO ordered it today! She loves to order stuff over the internet for me because she uses her credit card and gets mileage on Continental Airlines, then she tells me that the bill has come in, and I ask her "How much?". She adds the "nuisance tax", "stupid tax", etc, I pay it, she's happy, I'm broke, and we all live happily ever after!
