This Wiring Problem Almost Made Me QUIT My 600HP Mustang Build!

Welcome back to the 600HP Mustang Project! This one's a LONG one (47 minutes), and trust me—every minute captures the reality of project car life. What started as reassembly quickly turned into an electrical nightmare.

In this episode, I'm making real progress: painting the plastic light mount, painting radiator brackets, polishing headlights, and finally reinstalling the cleaned wire harness and cooling system. Everything's going smoothly... until it's time to fire up the beast.

That's when things go sideways. The car won't start, and I'm immediately chasing electrical shorts. What follows is hours of troubleshooting that leads me to nearly tearing out the ENTIRE dashboard from inside the car. I'm exhausted, frustrated, and running out of daylight.

If you've ever dealt with electrical gremlins on a build, you'll feel this one. Grab some snacks—this is a marathon, not a sprint.
