This weekend has been wiring and interior layout. The best place for the fuse panel worked out to be near the former passenger rear seat. So I'm going through and running all the wires now. I also tackled the dash installation, which required I cut the dash into 3 pieces to get it behind the front hoop.

Now I need to find a good interior shop that can recover the 3 pieces and do the rest of interior customizing I need.

Doug,
How much Fusor did you use to attach the reinforcements?
I'm thinking of doing the same thing...
Thanks!

I coated them pretty good. The first time, I clamped them very tight and squeezed out most of the fusor and was able to get them loose pretty easily. Next time, I left it a little thicker and didn't clamp so tight and that seemed to work out better. We'll have to see how it holds up.

Some recently received parts needed to finish off the build.










Upgraded Brake line tools. Since my motto is "there is no job worth doing that doesn't require a new tool!"

Awesome! Reminds me of the scene in Pulp Fiction trying to finish stuff before the wife gets home.
