Making some real progress, I've tidied up the wiring loom along the tunnel and plugged in the handbrake sensor, I've left the speedo sensor bracket for now - I don't have the sensor yet so will do that later.
I started on the scuttle - this took much longer than expected because I had to remove the pedal box first as I decided I wanted to make the scuttle and battery tray removable. I can see the benefits of doing this, even though its unlikely I will ever remove it in the future; now is the time to do and it may save me some work later down the line. The downside is I have to do lots of riv nutting and the tool I have is hard work! I took my time and took lots of measurements:
It doesn't look like a whole lot yet, but I've riv nutted everything bar the front edge and it all fits nicely with these low profile M6 bolts:
First thing this morning I cleaned up my steering column - I was win two minds again if this needed doing, but as I am going for a new registration I need to make sure everything is new\as new (technically I am only allowed three things which are second hand):
The finished product tomorrow should be dry enough to fit:
That's me done for today, time for a well earned beer!
