    Help!!!!!!!

     



    I've got a friend who just purchased a 34 Ford coupe glass car.

    All of a sudden nothing electrical works. Guages peg out, doors will not close, windows do not work, trunk if open starts closing when you cut on the ignition, car will not start, etc.

    Anyone run across anything like this?

    Just start at the battery and work forward from there. Check every connection and make sure the frame is grounded to the engine and to the rest of the car. Sounds like it is searching for a ground to me.
