Wiring harness in! If you recall, I welded retainer tabs all along the inner frame rail, under the dash, engine bay, and trunk so the harness is secure. I wrapped it all in that braided stuff and it really looks professional instead of it looking like some amature wanna-be was learning how to wire!:shocked:

All switches on the dash are in place and next up will be terminating the connections where they need to do. But before that, several other things to do: suspension, remote brake booster, fuel/brake lines, pedals and steering column. :3gears:

Just a few more bolts!:headbang:

Cheers

Today was a montabulous day! We're back on all four feetsies.... well, for a little while, anyway. Rear suspension in, tires on, and man, this thing is starting to look like what it was supposed to look like! :3gears:

And after the rear goes in, naturally the front is next! :cool2::3gears:

So cool to bounce the car up and down on a suspension I made! :biggthumpup: Next up, it goes back onto the jack stands since I need to route the lines and do some stuff under the car which is easier with it up in the air.

Details coming up will be the remote brake booster installation, exhaust heat shields on the floor, emergency brake cables, and a plethora of other crap I still need to do! :hmmm::biggthumpup:

Cheers
