I haven’t taken a pic today….. But I have gotten a lot done. which included getting my head wrapped around things again…  I prefer to just work on one at a time.. and thats how I am pushing things currently… 😎  😎

Wiring… Lots of wiring today… I ohm’d out switches and such and cut spades where we need screw terminal… and soldered the ends like it should be.. 😎  Speedo is in, switches in, all thats wired up… 😎  continue in the morning.. I would like to have the wiring in close order before I take off for another weekend.. 😎

Sounds good!  Snap a pic or two when you get a chance.

Was the wiper motor a 6V with a step down previously?  That reminds me I have a really nice 12V Optima Red Top battery on a trickle here.  Hopefully you have a spare battery around the shop to use during the build-out and drivetrain re-install, because I won’t need to take a battery with me back to Texas, I’ll use mine.

Stuffed the gas tank in and rolled this program over to the clean shop. Starting on the brake system. 

We will build it if it comes.
