Yeah, I'm looking at the same wiring plug setup on mine, fortunately I won't be in a rush. I also have a big kitchen table lol.

Next comes routing the wiring under the dash. Bought some magnets for band ties that seem to be interesting for the routing. More on that later.

Thanks for looking.

I used the magnet on my Camaro and once all the wiring was complete I put a little panel bound in the center of the magnet ring to make them permanent.

Had not thought of that, but will look into it. Seems like a good way to finalize the process.

Great progress Bill. Sorry to read about your troubles sir. It seems like this has been a common theme for many lately. Keep after it, you’ll be driving it before you know it.

Scott, thank you for the kind words. It does seem that this is part of life now, but it is all good. I have been fortunate that I had some time during the holidays to work on it.

I still plan on getting by to see you at some point, as we discussed in the past.

So getting this updated. Been working just about every weekend on it. Running wires, mounting things and actually pinning out the bulkhead connectors.
Ran the tubes for the hydraulic clutch, and now getting ready to do the main vehicle wiring. Mounted junction blocks to feed other grounds and voltage requirements.
Used magnetic band tie holders to route the wires. This kept me from having to add studs via welds.
Also, had the grandson helping out when I was actually pinning out the connectors.

For some reason, my pictures won't load. I will try again when I get a better connection.
