Stunning and I like that you shrink wrapped the fuel lines too. Anything we can do to prevent friction or rubbing or rattling on these cars is worth it in my opinion. I just hope I remember all of this stuff when my car begins its assembly phase.

got the headlight motors in and wired, now to fish the turn signal wires thru the J tube rubber. Steering column is ready and gauges are next. It's almost time for the drive train (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

working on the car trying to find a comfortable position in the car to work from has given me back pains. Yes I'm still working on the wiring but getting really close now. A enlarged color copy of the diagram is helping (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) thanks to Kinko.s. Utility knife for reference.
Engine seal is in, cleaned all my ground points and installed the relay board. Need to refinish the combo gauge but plan to have a triple gauge adding temp and oil pressure installed down the road. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) Attached image(s) |

Nice work. If you don't already have the correct blue/grey braided hose for the master cylinder feed lines shoot me a shipping address and I will send you some. I have ~2ft of it sitting here that I will never use for anything

Andy- Once you figure out the length you will need for your car I will buy an equal length from you, if you are willing to sell some, for my Six. Thanks. Michael

Trying to find a source for the clear plastic lines so I'll only need 6 inches, Then there will be plenty to go around. If I don't find some I may have enough for 3 cars total
Sanded and polishing the window channels tonight so I can assemble the doors. Hard to get a good picture but harder getting all the anodizing and scratches out. Attached image(s) |

Steering column is ready and gauges are next. FYI: Those brown and Brown/white striped wires come out the front of the steering column for the horn ring hookup. Otherwise....looking GREAT! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif) |

First piece of glass in the car. I'm sure I'll have some more adjustments as I add the window mech. and glass.

Andy - What are you doing to the polished aluminum to keep it from oxidizeing?
