Mirrors, door handles, rocker cover painted AGAIN and there's quite a few bits that I'll be keeping to myself as I want to try them first/have a look first before I decide I want them

*****UPDATE*****

As some of you know, I've been doing some changes this week to mainly the wiring.

To be honest for the length of time it took I wish I hadn't started but finally got it done

This is how the bay was:


I didn't like the wiring that went across to the coil and the one that came down from the battery to the light so I decided it had to go.

Late night impulse start:






The next day I went off to the scrappy to get some bits to help me out.

Whilst I was there I bought a new loom to use to extend it colour for colour and also got a tigra scuttle and new wiper arms for the bargain price of £7 for the lot!!



So on went those.




Then carried on with the wiring:
The whole front loom cut out

during:


I then relocated the coil as I didn't want it over where it was.



I didn't like it like that so I changed the can:


to this:




(cutting that did spray me in the face )

Fitted:



So then I got a few photos of the whole thing as it was:




Then I carried on today:


Alarm speaker relocated:


yay wiring:




And now reasonably back together:




During all that I've changed the route for all the wiring that goes anywhere down the front end. I also changed the fan on the radiator and mounted the radiator further forward to try and cool it down a bit

Got a few more bits to do this week before Trax but it's getting there and was good to here it run again and see everything worked first time
