JANUARY 2015 UPDATE

After a long time without much getting done, I might be on a roll again.
I think I'll just show a bunch of pictures this time with some explanations as needed.

Installing the heater/AC unit, I discovered that it interfered with the firewall so some more sheet metal work was called for.  Here is the firewall cut out in the offending area.
Next step was to make a poster board pattern.

Plenty of clearance!


Trace it onto the aluminum plate.
Cut it out on the shear.

Bend

Installed!


Now on to wiring.
 Fuse panel above the drivers feet.


The rear wiring for lights, fuel pump and fuel level is in place.
 Had to fabricate a bracket to hold the fuel filter. Top left of photo. 




 DASHBOARD!
Its really exciting to work on stuff that really shows progress.

Cutting holes for the heating/AC vents.
So nice to have a CNC mill next door.

Drilling rivet holes for tabs to attach the top dash cover.


Temporarily mounted in place.  Ready to cover and mount the instruments.

  1. HAHA! I was going to put what Tyler put! Now I can't. He'll make me look like a mindless copycat. He ruined it. ...What a jerk.
