Re: Plus Five

I got the speaker for the dash yesterday.
today was drizzly and cold so I spent a few hours in the shop.

I made a bracket for the speaker, and mounted it temporarily.
It will be covered with black speaker cloth.

I also made a thru the firewall fitting for the windshield washer line.
I'll make a reservoir for the fluid later, and mount it in the engine
compartment.

Re: Plus Five

New Years update,

I don't have any pictures, but made some real progress.

I painted the emissions lines and put new emissions/fuel hose on
the lines and new stainless hose clamps so that is all complete.

I also completed several wiring harness tasks. I completed the Radio,A/C,
cigarette lighter,motorized cowl vent,wipers,headlights,turn signals, horn,
third brake light,backup lights,sport mode, overdrive lockout button, LED dimmer,
high/low beam dimmer, ignition switch, interior dome/courtesy lights,front hood tilt,
power seats,park brake light, cooling fans, engine harness, check engine light, etc.

In fact, I think everything is wired up except the two round gauges.
I'll make a separate harness for those two.

I installed the fuses and so far everything works!

I even bumped the starter a few times....
