The BMW 507 Ultimate Build Thread!!!

[A12pilot]

So trim panel time! Behind the rear seat is a package tray where the tops rests upon when folded down. This is just light plywood which will be covered by the upholstery shop when the time comes



Here it is finished and the quarter side shields in place to. All will be upholstered.

Below is the heater box in place along with the wiper transmission and defroster vents.




I'll create a duct work to separate the left and right foot well vents as well as a plenum for the defroster. The levers are MGB levers which I'll cut and modify to fit in the factory opening on the dash




Wiper function testing! Everything works as it should. Sweep range is good, intermittent, low, high. I used tape on the knobs to simulate the arms so I could monitor direction.


And here are the ancilliaries mounted on the right engine beam. All in the correct spot and are correct per the 507.


Funny how the wipers are the first thing that works on a car that will never see rain!

Cheers
Dave
