Vanishing Point was a Challenger, must have gone to the drive in at least 30 times to watch that flick.

The Charger in the bottom photo is the short wheel base model. It has a much better turning radius.

Also looks like it has been under water for some time, is that a new blower and flame switch?

Is that an oil fired water heater or for heat only?

Jim

In all honesty, I didn't even look that close @ the furnace, but I did take a few snapshots of the "DIY" electrical connections in the basement, including the electric hot water heater

Wiring to the furnace:



Wiring to the HWH



This is the reason for the previous flooding



This is how it was corrected



Might as well put some real stairs in there as well.

They claim that the car that was wrecked at the end was a Camaro. And that if you get the DVD paused at the right point, you can see the "Camaro" name badge in the wreckage.

Jim,
That reminds me of a an old farm home I rented. Well pump needed some fixin, so I turned off the switch and laid hands on it, which sent me butt over teakettle.

I pulled some covers and found all the switches in the basement were in the white wires....

Great fix. It will allow for more body flex when racing and be less prone to further cracking.
