This guy said " hide that awful bunch o wires
http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/...ps289afeab.jpg http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/...ps4b25b874.jpg Rough wiring will get it looking good for final. Built this cover to hide most of it. It will be anodized black on last stage , http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/...ps8de81063.jpg http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/...psfed7cf4e.jpg http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/...ps78fc4057.jpg Got this guy done Sometimes a solution creates another problem such the case with CF shaft now it has no clearance for hose and clamp. Got to raise it about a 1/4" http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/...ps869add2d.jpg |
How about one of the Gate's shrinking hose clamps?

Here is how I went about it. It got it cut, raised 1/4" , welded it and finally open up inside with a carbide tip Good idea on those clamps I'll be using them on all water lines. http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/...ps1475d090.jpg |

Excellent work Frank.
Nice pic of your son. :thumbsup: |
Still digging
Started to finalize all gaps , cut header panel to bring fenders closer to hood and tuck them real nice around grill headlight area. Could not get driver fender to fit half way decent , so I found out bottom corner had been patched and when welded it was tweaked like crazy, than found structure was rusty so I figure cut the whole thing of and start from scratch. Got Momo steering wheel bolted seat on make sure it was where I want to be and got Flaming river colum complete to the rack, had to reshape center of dash due to diameter difference from stock, made a close out panel where colum meets dash. Mirrors are in ( got that idea from DSE). Both doors are gapped , not final . Gap is less than 1/8" They open and fit perfect but I know with paint it will be an issue. For now. I just like that tight look. Hoping to finish trunk gaps but maybe replacing lid. Next I will start setting up glass all around , make sure it all plays well together. making space for power steering cooler, doing some electrical. Begin planning interior. Maybe moving roll bar a bit out of the way. All well a bunch of BS go come http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/...ps9d34c962.jpg http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/...pse929ccc2.jpg http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/...psd6551416.jpg http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/...ps5fd782bb.jpg Found a can of that spray in one of those big shop's recycle bin http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/...ps2103c62d.jpg http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/...psb1b9cf55.jpg Got the block in there , ran wire inside ( right at kick panel area and to the trunk) http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/...ps8147bbb6.jpg http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/...ps9791468f.jpg http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/...ps9ba4ad75.jpg |
