Not many as I have had so much going on the last couple weeks. Hopefully next week I will be back on the car after work.

ps I have gone out and done small things when I can find an hour here or there.

Rule #1 Don't go to Sema when you are building a car that may or may not go back to Sema. Why, Because you are going to see some really cool stuff.

Like this.

and this, Yes I am going to get a hold of the guys at TechFlex and order some of the red/back wire sleeve.

I am pretty sure it was Mark that said this. If you have an hour to spare head out and do one of the small projects. So, I installed
a Burn Out Switch to prevent my friends from doing a burn out when I am not around.

Cleaning up the Fuel Pump wiring.

I still need to finish the taillight wires.

Pitman Arm Nut replacement.

I also ordered Scissors so I can trim the carpet.

Original Nut - Kinda Ugly

Much Better (( 11-11-23 ))

MJ,

I’m guessing it will also stop the wife & kids, the family dog, nosy neighbors too?

I started working on the drivers side door panels

The table is back out and so are my daughter towels from when they were little.

Looks like I need four more clips

I placed the template on the door and started trimming the panel to make them work.

Way off

This is a very tedious task so be patient.

More interior parts

Honest I have been working on the car however, not nearly enough.

Yet another To Do List

Next up is to flip the seat belt bracket so it can actually work.

Nope this won't work

Next time this car is off the lift I am going to move it over a little bit.

Six Day's later !!

Time to install the Classic Industries Door Panel.

I ran the factory screws in from the backside so they would make a mark on the door panel so I can punch a hole. I used
the tape to give me a reference so I new where to push on the panel.

Enlarging the holes for the blind nut.

Don't tell my wife I borrowed this.

Little paint and primer in one.

Test fitting the Template

Nailed it !!

Next up the door handle.

Final trim

I installed these washers in between the door panel and red door pull.

Next up ... Install the razor sharp retaining clips.

Time to remove the door panel so I can install the remainder of the clips.

Best tool ever for removing the door panel.

So, I have remote mirror but I am afraid to cut the hole in the door panel.

More notes (( yes I have memory issues ))

I plan to come back and glue the leather to the back side of the door panel.

Cut the hole for the window cranks and yes I am staying old school.

A little paint and primer in one is needed.

I placed the water shield on the template and made the necessary cuts.

yep, I have misplaced one of these washers.

More notes

Well, it was a good run and it looks like the Harbor Freight tool was only able to do a few dozen nutzerts.

I have one bolt left, maybe I will make a keychain with it.
