New grill is in. I guess it’s cutting time.

New nuts

After much trimming, I think this will work

You cant run old grill with new style larger side markers. They interfere with each other.

I can’t really show you. It is not possible to do that combination since the metal one is deeper on the ends and you can’t install it that way. Hope the picture explains that.

Left side. There might be some light touching when ever the motor twists. Gonna install some anti-rub stuff in these locations.

Man... Laying some pipe.

Spent the day sorting wires by size and color to use for making extensions. Of course the size/color I need the most I have the least of.

Also finally bought a set of second hands for soldering

 

[coldtaco]

Got the vacuum reservoir cleaned and painted. Got some more wires extended. Gonna take a long weekend break and go glamping

 

[coldtaco]

A little breezy, hopefully the rain stays away for a while

Nice work.
I used the accelerator cable from HJ61.
And it seems my engine is mounted to have some clearance to the steering shaft

Yesterday’s adventure, Palmer creek road out of Hope. Mine at the end up in the bowl, long abandoned.
