have an old ww floor that jeff was going to use in his westy but only a section of it was used , so have to patch it , with tank mounts using a bay tank so might just make up a cradle setup lined with some foam for support then run straps out of a bay , have one of gersons mounts but am going to try and replicate it so i have 2 for the dc...something else to do:).. jeff ran wires front to back for indicaters and got flasher unit wired in aannnndd all work so think have to piece together a horn button and put a globe in the interior light and sort out tail lights and it should be sorted ...

I have an inkling of your suffering, Klaus. Ever done any music recording? Multi-track, etc? No sooner have you sorted one thing that you listen back on speakers or headphones or a different room or your car stereo and another thing sticks out. I can only imagine that some days panel work can be a little the same. But keep at it. Looks brilliant.

Nothing like putting a patina'd ribbed ute bar on a slammed early hey it just gives it a complete look mannn thats off the chain!

Wiring job looks shithouse though I would have expected better from you

those little indicators are cool even more subtle than the ones on my old ute

That's looking hot, Klaus. Those carbs look bloody huge for a 1600cc.
