Re: 67 long box

It all fits so far, now the alarm, that's the wires hanging over the column, I just ordered a 400 watt inverter to add 4 usb charge ports and 2 110vac to charge a lap top or use an electric fishing knife. Wiring is the best way to learn patience. I still have to pull it all out to rap it with tape.

Re: 67 long box

New door lock/unlock, power windows and cargo light controls. They trip the ground to close the 85-86 on the relays. These switches are 3amp momentary push button normally open. I might paint the bracket blue to match the dash.

I think I'm done adding to the fuse panel and the relays wired to go to the doors for p/w, p/l.

Re: 67 long box

all the outside wiring tape wrapped and loomed. That breaker box turned out nice, it tucks the wires back to the firewall and no more fusible links. Ran to wires to the back with SS nuts, bolts and clips.

Re: 67 long box

Wiring is in for the last time, got all the micro switches wired and mounted. I painted the face of the gauge plate to take chrome away, to shinny. 8 rolls of electrical tape now. I broke the choke mount on the carb so had to make a new one, then spent an hour trying to get the key tumbler back in.

Re: 67 long box

Forgot how nice the old paint looks. Tucking the wires, mounted the headlight relays. Had a good day.

Re: 67 long box

Pre fit the AC brackets, blasted and painted. Nice score on a set of inner fenders, Goodmark, 120$ for the pair. The fit is really nice.

The wires run for the AC, ran an 8 gauge power supply for the stereo and power inverter.

Re: 67 long box

Hit another milestone tonight, finished the battery cables, tossed the battery in and it turns over without smoke coming from the wiring. No fuel in it yet but now I can proceed

Re: 67 long box

Got at the front inner fenders, they are stone guarded and painted ready to install. The outer fenders have the inside painted satin black and still to paint the blue on the side rails.

Done ready to install. New inside and original outside. It's nice to start with almost perfect fenders.
