She has now been engineered and safety certificate issued. That was easier than I expected, the mobile safety certificate guy noted the engine and chassis number, wrote out the paper work and was gone inside 15mins

Rego will occur on Monday and then a few runs to iron out any issues.
Wiring now all but completed, what an epic
RetroSound Hermosa stereo fitted with dual cone speaker behind the grills in the dash. Bluetooth will ensure we keep the clean 'no wires' look we were after
Trimmed the front seat in TMI vinyl with back pleated seams (complete interior to be done in FEB which is the earliest we could book her in for)
The window rubbers were so tight they were flexing the mounts and cracking the paint. Even though this will be covered I wasn't happy to leave it so the doors were cut , reinforced and welded back together. they were then rubbed down and resprayed
Nice bit of bling to keep me happy after shelling out on the doors and the engine refresh!
New wiper mechanisms needed so they folded away out of the way of the windows
Trying to hide all of the wiring etc. This is the new route for the battery connections, through the floor and chassis rails
Front bar fitted
Nice and Loooooooooooooooow
Semaphores fitted after some challenges!
You know your getting close when the plates go on ready for rego!
She looks like new, no part was untouched including all of the lock mechanisms
Engine is now back in after a refresh by VolksMod, it sounds awesome and the 2276 will ensure there is plenty of grunt on hand. The stacks will be polished and we will use small clip on filters from 'Stack Injection' rather than larger bulkier items
Anticipate having her in the shed in 7 days time, the countdown has begun!
