And just when it looks like you have a project completed, you tear it all apart again..... Such a cool build to follow. If you don't mind me asking though, do you have a good source for the weatherproof male/female connectors? I've tried a couple different places in the years past and none were really easy to deal with.

Did Ford hire you as a chief engineer yet?

Ahhhh some of "ya'll" gots jokes! lol Yeah was up late and a thought passed thru that my deadline is now fast approaching! 
Things that I made note of that I wanted a certain way must now be dealt with. No sponsorship on Tesa tape, but damn it would be nice...... Ironically I got a few thumbs up on Instagram from a Ford engineer. Wanted to ask him what he was doing on there instead of engineering stuff, but decided against it. lol
No source on certain weather proof connectors, specifically the rubber seals...but I have located the correct pins that the seals fit in. Most of the MX-150 connectors are already weather proof..i.e, the ones used for headlights/tail lights from Molex... But for the ones with the rubber seals separately, like the 409 connector that goes from the engine bay to the tail....I have not. Sorry. Someone my have. I will keep looking. I do know I did not find a resource for using a professional crimper on the rubber seals...only a document stating the process. Anyway, some of these last steps with this build will be some of the larger ones and a few are truly challenging. Thanks all for taking your time to visit my build. It helps when I hit a plateau or an " oh hell, what do I do about that?" moment.
