So we hooked up the generator after polarizing it. Everything is working and its a brand new wire harness. When we start the car, the gauge goes directly to discharge. We reversed the wires and nothing registers on the gauge. Which way are the color code wires supposed to be connected?
Thanks
Sorry I've not been following this thread. Did you ever get your charging system working?
 
OHHH, that desk chair is gonna need reupholstering before that goes in!

Yes we did. Thanks. If I remember correctly the wires were backwards as we installed them just like we took them off. So I guess it wasn't working b4 either :crazy:
 
Kinda crappy pictures but here are a few recent ones.

Looking better on every shot. Keep them coming and congratulations on a great job.
 
I love the wood grain on the dash. Is this something you had made or is it available somewhere?

Extremely nice car!
 
Impressive detail going into this restoration, it looks very nice.

So, have you driving it yet ?
