71 Duster 360 (new project)

smoke tested my wiring today...and I smoked one wire...LOL...

flipped master cut off switch to on...connected ground to battery...sparks were flying..

got ohm meter out and started looking for short....well..something inside car was shorting out...after disconnecting stuff and checking each circuit with ohm meter to ground...thought i found it...turned master cut off switch back on....after a couple seconds i turn it off....i could a smell wiring burning...found the hot wire to the voltmeter had got hot...apparently went installing the hot lead..i used a washer on it..and the washer was was shorting out against the mounting bracket....

got that repair...turned switch back on....flipped fuel pump and i could it singing in the rear of the car...tested the rest of the circuit for power ...everything good to go...

waiting on parts for the steering wheel...was hoping to get engine in car monday ...but with no steering in car...might not be do able since i need to get car out of way to get engine and trans in front of car...
