    Well, I am so close to getting the Maverick running. Just need to slide the tranny under the car and jack it up in. Should have that done tomorrow. Then I just need to hook up the wiring for my electric water pump and add the fluids and pray she starts. Since she should be running in the next couple of days, I went ahead and reserved my room at the Holiday Inn. Hey, I wonder if Snoop Dogg will be at this Holidae Inn :rofl2: . Nevermind.:slap:, that was stupid. I plan on sending my money for the show & shine on Monday. So I will be able to meet everyone meeting in Newcastle on Friday afternoon. I am looking forward to this now even more.

    I belive the best times would be like between 11:15 and 11:45 and leave at high noon!I think there is only one exit for Newcastle (exit 115) It's a very short exit off the freeway, the AM/PM is at the first cross road ,on the left.( this is less then 1/8 mile from the freeway)

    Even with a quick pit stop at the summit we should arrive Reno no later then 2:30 , perfect for check in at the hotel.

    What ya all think?

    That sounds great to me. I am taking both Thursday & Friday off. This way I have a full day before to get the last minute things finished up. This should be a fun trip.

    Well, I got the car back together now. The bad thing is I can't get the car to turn over. I think the neutral safety switch is messed up from when I changed my shifter. I have to try and firgure out what wires uder the dash are for the neutral safety switch and what ones are for the reverse back up lights. I know it isn't the battery because I have the charger on it and still get nothing. I even swapped out the starter solenoid to make sure it wasn't it. I put new battery cables & solenoid to starter cables on too. I put a test light on the side terminal of the solenoid going to the starter to see if I am getting any juice and none what so ever. I have read all of the post about the safety switch on this board and no one ever says what wires are the ones to the switch. If anyone knows please HELP!!! If I can't get this thing started by next week I am going to have to back out and I don't want to do that one bit. This is killing me too. I just went out and purchased new wheels & tires for this show too.
