If it wasn't for your bracket I wouldn't be able to use this pedal and I can't wait to show everyone the other stuff I bought from you.

Slowly but surely I will get this car back on the road. On a side note I have a new appreciation for the guys that do this full time. Man is it a bunch of work.

Once again Dr EFI Andrew to the rescue. Since, I had given up on moving the wire (Yes I failed and so did a couple other Guys ) Andrew
told me to ship it to him and less then a week later it was back and it worked perfect.

Thank you again Andrew you are the best !!!



I remove the Painless Harness that I borrowed from a friend.



As you can see it's not as pretty as the Wiring Specialties Harness



Wiring Specialties Harness going back in.



All Better



Let's not forget the passenger side.



All Better.

I can't tell you how excited I am to be working on the interior and yes the Christmas Tree is still up and it has not come down since 2002.



Pieces and Parts



The Dash insert comes with a very nice bracket to support the Holley Dash.



I needed to clean out the threads as the supplied hardware would not screw in.



Another quick trip to on the four Home Depots within 3 miles of my home. I purchase yet another (can't find mine)
2" Hole Saw. My plan is to drill a slightly smaller hole then necessary which will allow for a tighter fit.



Cluster Installed.



You can see where I plan to install the Autometer Analog Clock.



I poke a small hole in the ''Classic Dash" Surround.

Link to the surround https://classicdash.com/product/1970...ck-dash-panel/



I put down multiple layers of blue tape to protect the Dash Surround.



Hole is drilled and I will clean it up with a Dremel & round sanding disk.





Ugh more wires...



I installed a 3/16'' heat shrink on the three loose wires.



The main harness is secured to the firewall ad all other loose wires are currently being held in by twist ties. Once the wiring
is complete some of the twist ties will be replaced with zip ties.





Wiring Notes




Opps I found another wire I need to connect and yes I am going to use a switch on this one.

Finally wiring that is stupid simple.

.

I installed a little bit of the Tech-Flex sleeve on the power & ground.



I need to extend the illumination wires.







I am telling you guys you all need a bike Mechanics stand.

Routing the wires for the Holley Dash



I tried to make the power wires look factory even though no one will ever see them.



Of course I labeled all of them.



Since I am not using the factory radio I am going to use the power from the radio harness to power the Holley Dash.



I dug out the wiring diagram for the radio so I know where to connect the wires.

I just want to say the guys at Anvil are the best. I called them and told them my closeout panel didn't match the inner fenders
and the new radiator cover. Immediately I received an email from them and they took unbelievable care of me.

Here is the new piece that arrived in the mail days later.



It's a perfect match and they have unbelievable, customer service and I can't say enough kind words.



Since the Coil Harness is new perfect (( Thank You Andrew AKA Dr EFI )) I secured the harness to the back of the cylinder head.



Secured

I can't tell you how excited I am to get both of the inner fenders in the car and thankfully Mike is coming over to help me with the passenger side.

: Certain wire will need to be extended.





You can see how the wires are routed under the fender.





One more piece of the car out of my attic office.



If you look closely on the left you can see a very cool old stadium seat.





Mike and I slid the inner fender in and of course we needed to modify it just a little bit to clear the brake line bracket.







All better however I am considering making a rubber rain shield to close up the opening.



Roller is back on
