Spent an hour or so today on the white car with Puzzlescort putting in nutserts to hold the driving light steadies and the wiring loom clips on. Looks nice. I'll have to dig out the camera at some point to get some more pics.
 
Also put the carbies on to the manifold with the new linkages.

Here are a couple showing the centre console, modded dash and circuit breakers. Still need to label everything.

Another couple. One showing the finished spot lights and the other the relay bank that runs then. All the front lights are now relayed and the feeds fused individually. One does the low beam, one the high beam, one each for the spotties and the final makes sure the spotties only come on when the high beam is selected.

Tachometric relay fitted. All the fuses and relays are now in. Intercom wired in. Fuel pumps fitted and wired in. Pickup from the freshly painted capri tank removed and replaced with a larger 10mm one. Throttle cables fitted. Brake fluid reservoirs plumbed in and fitted. Labeled all the switches on the console.
 
Box for the battery should be here next week. Next job is running the fuel line to the engine bay and planning the layout of the brake lines.
 
Head for the engine should be ready on Wednesday. Once the head is fitted to the block the engine will be fitted.

Hi Mate,
 
Love the speedo.  What brand and what was involved to fit it?
 
Great stuff.  Keep at it.

Its a 100mm VDO. I'll link up the exact model when i get home from work. You need a dremel and a holesaw to get it in. Did a test run on a standard dash before modding the rs one. I needed the new speedo as the five speed has the speedo drive blanked off. It'll run off the sensor for the tripmeter.
