Looks good Don. A clean organized shop equals more truck time and less time looking for that dam tool you know you have somewhere...

Looking good Don.

I would hate to relocate a work bench, that is the highest level of commitment to the tidying up job.

Thanks for the call.

I think I also have the same harness as Martin, bought from the same vendor, but via eBay

It is the E-Z Wiring 21 fuse unit.

Lovely bit of kit and was priced right.

After some research this morning, I decided on the speedway harness, recommended by Bomp cuz that's what Dino uses...;) Thanx Greg!!!

It comes with Headlight Switch and Dimmer as well as other bauble and bits, I also ordered the adapter to work with the OG steering column connector...:mm:

All told, just under $220 to the door...

Looking good Don. I should probably do the wiring harness at some point too. Won't be long and you'll be cruising.

Brake calipers look great and you just can't beat a box of Cubans :metal:
