Well, it wasn't a whole day more like a few hours. Since I only had the kids nap time to work I started getting ready for the header install.

My Vant/Heater blower has quit on me. Now the temp controls have not worked properly since I have owned the stang and I have never tried the heater since I rarely drive it during the cold months. I had managed to get the vent to blow through the defroster by manually adjusting all the wires...

I started to look at the wiring to install a replacement stereo in my 72 coupe, there is not stereo in it now and it had a factory unit in it a some point. I was trying to figure out the factory wiring, but the wiring diagram book that I have for the car does not include radio and speaker...
