Progress picture
Done some work recently, thought I'd throw up a pic of its current state. Replaced drivers door, hood, headlight bezel, swapped auto column for four speed column, put new dash bezel in, and tried to fix some wiring issues. If anyone has advice on my headlights, that'd be great. When I swapped the column they worked at first, then I plugged in the neutral safety switch to get it running, and now nothing. All the other lights work. Tried unplugging safety switch, nothing. also tried messing with the dimmer, still nothing. thanks

Re: Progress picture
Great progress. I assume you checked all the fuses, traced the wires, checked continuity, etc.? Something shorted somewhere.

Re: Progress picture
I checked for power at the headlight plug in and nothing so I'm thinking its the column wiring or something, oh well. One of these days haha. I also need to regear the axles, too many things, so little time.

Re: Progress picture
Oh yeah, I love the challenge. Needs carb attention, too. I'm hoping by summer all the bugs will be worked out of it...
