Got it running!

Well I got my 1972 GMC Sprint Running, I bought it on the 26th of August and drove it home, drove it around a little bit and went to start it a week ago and Nothing! I got a crap load of problems to work with though, between the custom made shotty wiring, home made speaker system running off of walmart computer speakers and a rogue wire that has a piece of metal clipping it together it was a rough week.
 
 Long story short I had replaced the starter, which required I grind one bolt off, still nothing! I went ahead and replaced the ignition starter switch and Vrooooom back in business!



 Here is the work ahead of me that I see so far:

 Broken Frame - Fix with a MIG welder
 Windshield leaks - Replace the windshield gasket! removing the redneck work
 Brakes - I'll bleed the drums and put new brake fluid
 An ugly red visor on a black car - remove that pos and bondo it!
 Exhaust leak with a fallen off muffler - Replacing with a complete magnaflow  muffler system complete with headers!
 Rust on the Body - Will replace both doors, and rear quarter panels on both sides
 Interior Shot - Will replace the entire interior!




 Any questions?  I'll post pictures in a bit!
