This is such a personal taste/choice decision that I don't feel compelled to give my opinion. I think you are miles ahead of me on this anyway. Keep on with it Laszlo!
Great 57 coming up right there! Nice paint job. Stay with it. You'll soon be driving and enjoying it. :-)
Welcome Mike. You (and your brother) seem like "do-ers" regarding your car builds (not just talkers with no action).
We encourage you here, and we'd like to help when you need it.
Post any...
You are a generous man Sid. And we all thank you for that. :)
Welcome! Like Chevynut suggests, post a few pics of what you're starting with---where you're at with your build and then use the subforums to ask lots of questions.
I personally like this forum...
Put a link on here somewhere to donate $ to help you offset the costs...
You're making great progress. I see a finished Nomad coming up soon.
But using wood?
Hi John. Do you have a Tri5 now? or are you looking? or are you an admirer? Nice to meet you.
Welcome Bruce. Lots of tri5's come up for sale in various ways all the time. Do your homework and find one that fits your style. They are plentiful.
Fantastic work and thank you for documenting it here.
BTW. what gauge of sheetmetal are you using for most of these patch panels?
Everything on this garage is done, except for the barnwood siding and stackstone on the one wall under the patio cover
Here's the final patio cover with the shiplap underside, recessed lights, and...
what are you showing us in that Holley cable/connector? Its 2 wires going into a 3 pole connector...why?
Good to hear you are taking some time off from this hobby. That's good for everyone once in a while.
And glad to hear you are moving steadily thru the wiring process and this new/old vette will be...
Wiring is fun. How you coming along Richard?
I have Classic Instruments gauges. They work fine. They came with all the parts included with the Nomad purchase when I bought it, so i used them. But after driving with them for a while, the gray...
One more of the front. Still need to put the stackstone rock at the bottom (in the area where there is no color stucco coat)

A few more pics of the progress.
At this point, it's all done inside, and the new cabinets mounted, and all the storage racks put back in.
My wifes Acadia Denali is now parked back inside.

That engine is so clean looking.
I have now wired up 2 old cars pretty much from scratch, and fumbled my way around wiring systems on other vehicles. i self learned alot about how the power moves thru circuits (and when it doesn't...
you can put the updates in here if you want.
Or if you have topical questions to ask, then start a new thread in one of the other forum sections.
What a great find! just do the basics to get it running and stopping and drive it a little before you dive into more upgrades. And check the date codes on the tires. If they are 10+ years old, you...
Looks good Laszlo. I like your description of your +battery and -ground wire rationale. It seems logical to me, and is how I wired mine up too (lots of grounding points all tied into to the...

Getting closer to the finish line.
Yes buster...it's insulated (rockwool). This is my wifes garage, and she'll primarily park her car in there and store all her housewares/kitchen/entertaining and patio/party stuff. So not much time...
