Ken G's Journal

Weather and life have been busy but some minor progress has been made.
I added some fresh gas and charged up the battery and it starts like a champ, first time when the weather is warm. Second or third try when it is a bit colder.

I spent some time rewiring the turn signal and the windshield wiper plugs. The car is a 1976, but my wiring harness is a 1977+. Which means that the plugs for the 1976 turn and windshield wipers do not fit the harness, but the stalks from the later cars do not fit the steering column. Bit of a hassle. I cut the wires from the turn stalk and fitted a new plug from British wiring, on the wipers I pulled them out of the old plug and was able to put them into the new plug. (I only wrecked one getting it out of the old plug)

Now that I have the ignition, both stalks and the dash harness connected, (dash is still out) I just need to run the rear harness to the front of the car so I can begin to do some testing.
