Thanks Treekiller, I like the top 1 the best, like the color, I just like the stance and the roofline of it stock, I want to rod the rest though. The bottom 1 is a very good job but, I think it looks a little funky, the fact that you cut out the rear doors is cool though.

Kinda but they wouldn't be as neon and he didn't put ground effects on but, if he did they wouldn't be there now, they would be disposed of.

the last red one I posted is about as good as it gets....

Thanks, Treekiller, the red 1 u did gives me a good idea of what it would look like.

I looked over the green light wiring and, the positive power wire is spliced into the coil power wire with one of those connectors that cut a notch in the wires when they snap togther, I was thinking that it may have gotten corroded causing power failur. I cut the lead wire that was spliced into the coil power wire that powered the green lights then stripped the end off that the lights were still connected to and then touched it to the positive side of the battery, they then lit up so, that's how I know the wire running to the coil is bad, because the lights do work, any other ideas?

Just to better my explination here are a few pics of the green light wiring, in the first pic, the 2 wires that are sitting loose on the battery are the 2 halves of the 1 I cut.

Just figured I'd show where the lights are located.

Heres that pre splice conector thing


oops no pic in this 1

last 1 didn't take, here it is

Thanks streets, what looked like the coil wire that hooks to the ignition switch has come off so maby that's why but, I'll connect the 1 half of the wire I cut and jump that to the battery on the positive sitde ( same way I made the lights work except, with the other side of the wire ). I did know that his wiring was junky and I said to myself " why not the ignition switch and the coil instead " the minuite I realized the way it was truly wired. All of that old wiring will be removed and I will rewire it correctly, maby I'll wire it into the horn switch instead of the ignition.

I just tried to start my car again after jumping the wire to the battery, I got nothing then, I looked at the coil, it looks like it bleed to death, it is all black greasy on the sides and, on the botton I can see a line crack where oil could have passed through, gona have to order a new coil also, that shoulden't be to expensive.

I kinda like the 6 volt system, it's diffrent and I'd like to be a little diffrent, 75% of the kids in my class don't know what a 6 volt system is. I got the battery from TSC ( Tractor Supply Company ) and it cost me 29.88. Are you saying I can order the coil from TSC?

Oh yeah, I was arleady considering a main power disconnect under the dash.
