I ordered some Solen caps and Mills resistors, Clearview wire, etc. The big thing with soldering is not to set your hair on fire.

That's exactly why you don't see many hippies working in electronics stores.

Me too. Soldering doesn't scare me. It's working on engines, anything with a gear train, and power tools that scare me...

Micheal_A,
Sorry...one up on you there...my Dad taught me engines when I was a kid and I spent my teen years rebuilding the engine in a '66 Mustang, recreating the engine for a '75 Dodge Colt and then into my early married years rebuilding a '89 Honda Accord hatchback.
Don't do that much any more...the '96 Honda Accord runs just fine (bought it only slightly used unlike the above)...
I would like a Mini Cooper S though...

WhatFurrer -
Hey man, I had a '66 mustang. This car was CLEAN, inside and out. The only downside was it had a 200 and not a 289. Before selling the thing (like a fool) I rebuilt the engine and transmission - my first rebuilds and it worked like a champ.

Wish mine had been that clean. When I originally got it, it had orange shag carpet in it...my Dad had brokered the deal with a Spanish gentleman he worked with at the time.
Needless to say, the orange carpet came out and I quickly found that the passenger floorpans had a considerable size hole in it. One night, it was raining and going through a considerable water puddle at a good clip gave my girlfriend a shower inside the car from road water coming up through the floorboard... .
Mine had a straight 6 200 in it as well...would have preferred a 289 with a stick...this was an automatic.
Was always trying to talk a friend of mine out of the 260 V8 that he had...no luck...
