no power what so ever....

so, my friends and i FINALLY got my car back together, and we were all happy and giggling like schoolgirls. so i went to start the car for the first time.

now i have no electricity inside the car at all. the headlights came on and flipped up, but nothing else works at all. the car has been sitting since june '13. maybe i dont have a wire connected somewhere? even though i thought i labeled all the wires i disconnected, maybe i forgot one or 2? as i said, the headlights work but nothing else does. help please?!

Checking the fusible links would be a good start.

Why get bus fuses?? There are no such fuses on your 7 if we are talking about the 82 in your signature. You can hand make new fusible link with fusible link wiring that you can buy over the counter or you can buy the correct and original link from a forum member.
