Back out in the Garage again (02-16-20)







I was hungry so I looked in my wife's car and found some snacks



Another harness that I am going to redo...



This was the original fuel pump wire.



Time to remove and clean up the harness.



While I am here I might as well clean up the tail light harness.

Odd it doesn't look so bad on the ground...To late now




My desk for the next couple hours.



Looking better already.

Moving back to the front of the car. (02-19-20)



The Dot's represent where I will bond in the "Weld Mounts"









Looks like there is plenty of clearance the bend doesn't look that bad



Vintage Air





Studs going in.



Off to Ace Hardware for more clamps and a Chunky Bar.



While the epoxy is drying I am going to jump back to the taillight harness.

and yes I put this Circle in for a reason.

Back to the Holley EFI Harness (02-20-20)

Remember the blue notes.

Since this is a ground stud I removed all of the paint and I also removed the paint from the inside of the cowl.



Good News every stud was place in the correct location + or - milometers.











The view from the back seat

Picking up some more parts from D&R Classic (02-22-20)

As you can see it was a beautiful day out and I decided I would rather go for a drive then work on the car. So it was Parts run Saturday.

Then of course I went back to work on the car.

I spent a little time routing the wires a little better and securing them in place.





Removing the paint from the ground area's





Yep another note.





It's kinda funny looking at this picture as I have been searching for the brake switch. Apparently it's on the harness. (yes I am going to go look at this post)





I put the steering wheel back on so I had something to grab when I am trying to get out from under the dash.





Picked up some new stainless steel bolts for the AAW fuse box.





and a Chunky Bar (looks like I am starting a trend here)





Need to trim it to my desired length.





I have saved this little screw driver for years and it has finally has been put to use.





Since my girls are out I had to become a little creative.





pulled out another tool that I seldom use. Yep it's ratcheting.








Firmly mounted.

Marty, that stay at home advisory is really working in your favor by getting a bunch of small detailing stuff done. I picked up some of that wire wrap to use as a conduit for wiring going from the trunk area to glovebox, keeps them nice and neat & protected.
Hey if you don't mind...... in the pics of your spark plug wires, your grommet on your firewall that feeds your main harness looks nice and snug, care to share which one you used. Thanks.
Keep up the tidy detailing!

Hi Simon,

The good news or should I say great news is I am still working but my hours have been cut back to about 40 hours a week which is a nice change. I should also add I don't sleep much.

Here is the info on the grommet.

https://www.mcmaster.com/9600K231

9600K231 SBR Rubber Push-In Grommet for 1-7/8" ID and 1/16" Material Thickness, packs of 5

Pink wire went to the distributor?

Looking good, Marty. Think the car will be back on the road this year?
