Making a bit of progress on the car...
Flaming River battery switch behind passenger seat.
Heated seat wiring harness - relay and fuse blocks mounted on chassis rail behind dash. Wires to seats fished through side panel and out a grommet. Will wait until the carpet goes in to solder the seat connectors on so I can make a smaller hole in the carpet. I'm about 90% done with the wiring. After reading Dan's thread, I have my fingers crossed that it will all work!
Insulated tunnel and front tunnel cover.
Undercoating is done. Came out real nice. I didn't want to chance any overspray, so covered the entire car. Second photo is rear wheel well. I coated the side of the fuel tank as well, so all visible areas will be black.
Installed front and rear sway bars. Labeled the installed sway bar because I have some friends following my build who wouldn't find it otherwise
Mounted rear wheels and made first attempt at safety wiring. After seeing scratches on a couple cars apparently from the safety wire, I used microtubing where it touches the wheels and spinners. Safety wire is .031" and the tubing has an inside diameter of .032", so it fits like a glove. Overkill perhaps, but so what...
