Beautiful sunny 60 degree sunny day here in NJ but water on roads from snow melting no driving today. Start up and some detailing pics to follow.

Took a half day to work on the car. Got the exhaust installed and may need to tweak it after a few miles. Found one side of the override vacuum pods. After connecting that seems that through static testing the wiper door issues are resolved. Wipers and fan still are not operating and need to find way to test the motor itself. I can hear relay(s) clicking when the switch is moved. I think that major issues are resolved, since not planning on driving in the rain anyway. Now just need to swap positions with the LT-1 so that it can leave the garage. Need to get alignment and tires, and then can look st getting wipers and fan working. Not sure if will happen before tax time though.

Curious,

I have a 70 BB car with many options including air. It was mentioned that the radiator fan is a special item that is exclusive to that car. The "Shark Tooth" Fan.

Some one said they are hard to find and expensive. What price range does a fan like that command? Just curious.

There is one on eBay for about $600. That is just the fan without the fan clutch.
