I was unable to activate the programming handheld module and the Holley Dual Sync distributor. I had made a few calls to Holley assistance line which is very good and they take calls until 11 pm. They had advised me to return the FI unit that replaces the carburetor to have Holley check it out, but before I did that, I decided to recheck all of the wiring and I found that the wire I had sourced for the computer was not providing the necessary voltage. After another call to Holley I rewired it and lo and behold, the computer programmer came to life.

I have not started it yet because I am going to install a Vintage Air Gen IV heat, defrost, AC system and I haven't bought it yet so I cannot complete the cooling system. Gotta get on that.
Also need to have the interior redone.
It's always great to see progress! Do you think it will be completed by June?
@davidfrank I sure hope so. The next hurdle is getting the interior done.
Wow! Now I can really see why my favorite DeSoto is a 1960. Looks amazing already and I can’t wait to see it completed.
Keep us posted Regis

I secured a set of swivel seats to put in instead of the bench seat. I killed 6 cows (not really) to get hides to upholster the seats in leather. Instead of the center seat/armrest, he is going to keep the center setback and build a console/armrest with cup holders in the middle.
