Trial fitted rear lights. I dont like the huge Lucas 691/2's so went for the smaller glass 488 lamps and i'm pleased with the result. I'll still need the larger ones at the front to get around the IVA issue of the lights having to be at a set height though.

Windscreen is now bolted in......


Finally after spending an age labelling up the loom i ve started to get the front part run. Ive run the entire length in the engine bay through convoluted tubing/conduit for added protection and P clipped the whole thing to the underneath of the bonnet recess. The result is pleasingly hidden and out of site with only the drop outs for the alternator etc being visible which you can just see bottom left of the above photo. The rivets in the bonnet recess will then be covered by the rubber supports for the bonnet.

Relays where mounted on a suitably thick piece of ally and then bolted to the scuttle hoop. Ive also cut the hole in the bulkhead for the fuse box which is then accessible from the engine bay.

Now that the front loom is in I can get the engine in - Happy days!
