was all fine in Gtown, thanks guys. 
My lifey is self inflating anyhow when it gets wet (great if you fall overboard concussed, or drunk), so I was safe wearing it around the streets amid downpours.
 
Clueless is a good decription MArk about my Speeduino and general EFI knowledge, trying to increase it , but not having the general mechanicked knowledge you and Marty have garnered, puts me on a learning curve.
 
I think the bike ITB/Speeduino projet is likley still for Marty as well? ( I got the dual analogue sensor in for it,yet to be added)but in general it stalled when my PC wont let me keep drawing the custom inlets up.
 
We want to see the first production run of guards and bootlids soon  Marty.
Then whats next,  repro's of the  rubber bootlid spoilers, or rally roof vents like I bought?
Dash crash pads for vans?
 

I havent used one directly Marty, but have wanted to, and only done some 3D print stuff as you know.
I'd be happy to buy one of those, especially with having an android phone, not Apple, which is the same as you I think? 
Otherwise youd need the Ferret Pro version
You'll be set with the 3D printer, nice side gig lining up for you.
Let me know if you need a cracked 4 door dash pad  to scan

Looks great Marty almost Monza Red by default.
Amazing how all these cars were left to the elements are now bringing big dollars and al lot of effort/money to restore.
Just imagine if they had all been well cared for from new. I wonder what the market for them would look like? Parallel universe stuff

We started stripping the interior out on Ausday, noticed some rust about the front floors and heater area, once it's emptied out we'll install a gantry to roll it around on given to me by the late great Paul Dunstan.

Speaker is 6x9 3 way coaxial but only a cheapie , my ears can't tell between cheap and high end speakers no more , only the wallet can !


Marty, I did not know Paul was 'late'. I assume we are talking the same guy, modified pedal box and electric steering column? If so I now know why I never heard back from him.
And yes, besides your ears not telling, whats the point of drowning out that sweet carb noise!

Did a small spend the other week to buy a plastic welder , mainly for the rally pack grill as it's been broken but all parts are still present even after 30yrs storage! This is the little device, paid only $21 , in not sure about the instructions tho !!


Ok, .. And now for something completely different (where have I heard that phrase before?) . Got thinking to have a go at installing a electric window set on the mk1... Well it's got sunroof, heater seats with full electrics, fold down rear seats etc. This window winder is from a Suzuki Swift I got for $30 , I'm going to see how I can install this to an Escort door..


Before you say to get a universal kit, I have one and they do not work as intended plus the motor and gantry hangs on the outside of the door frame, a big no no for escort due to limited space etc.

Moving to the rear door card where I'm fitting 6x9 speakers , I traced the shape onto a sheet of 4mm board, similar to the stuff at the back of cupboards.

With the pattern cut out on the bandsaw, I got to mark up the armrest and then cut it out with a jigsaw. I also cut the fibreglass armrest out and trimmed it down to be glued on from the back

This is the trimmed the fibreglass panel

I'll be doing a bit more on this tomorrow

Watchu talking about Willis !

Yeah I have a 4 day weekend each week now (like Easter) for the foreseeable future , thing is I'm only $150 down a week from being full-time!

Also I'll start another thread for the rally pack once thing get happening more with it

time for a Yo Tube channel then mate, to add to the income.
 
Name ideas fellas:
"Marty's Restos"
Shed Time with Marty...
 
Prize for the best suggestion
 
 

Those rear cards are coming up a treat, have you got plans on how you'll control the travel on the windows or do those electric motors have a top and bottom learn adjustment?
