We are making good progress, and my kids are really into the project. We usually spend an afternoon on the weekend, and one or two nights during the week for an hour or so.
Since my last post, we have:
- Removed aluminum panels around doors so I could install the seat heater wires properly, and reinstalled the panels
- Finished installing and sealing all of the aluminum panels
- Installed insulation on the firewall interior, top of the footboxes (interior), and tunnel
- Completed most of the wiring (dashboard, engine bay, trunk)
- Made an aluminum sheet metal bracket for a power socket, and installed it under the dashboard. Also installed the brackets for the seat heater buttons under the dash
- Installed the windshield wiper motor and mechanism
- Installed the tonneau snaps
- Installed weatherstripping around the trunk, and on the hood. I learned my lesson with this adhesive a long time ago and used it *very* sparingly. It turned out great, no seeping glue, etc.
- Riveted the hood scoop
