I'm wondering where people come up with this flame ideas LOL. I would be nice to meet a other flame buddy, if you can post some pics of the Flame Mobile :grinpimp:

Going way back but the Flames make me laugh. The second 40 my dad bought was sky blue with flames. LOL. The PO was a Harley Guy and had huge plans. Lets just say we saved it from total aftermarket add ons and diamond plate death. I drove it through most of High School. My buddies used to call it the Flame Mobile. It still sits behind my dad's garage with flames and all. I should snap a pic and post it.

OK, more work done this week got the transmission tunel back from the bodyshop, seal the old holes and make new ones for the trans and transfer. also did the raptor liner on the fenders and the transmission tunel. did the wiring inside the fj but I'm having trouble to figure how the wiring for the back of the fj goes

if anybody can post any pics of their wiring after it goes thru the fire wall and down, I know the wire goes back to the trans and up to the fuel sending unit but after that how does it get to the tail lights? frame or body? help me out please!
