As planned, spent the initial period of this week's car time looking into the indicator's electrics. In the end, destroyed 1h30m of work that I was not happy with and will wire the wing indicators from the loom terminals near the scuttle, using long cables. And the nosecone indicators are plugged where they should, in the front end of the loom.
Liberated from that hurdle, prepared the nosecone to be fit. Had to file slightly the holes on the fiberglass to match them with the ones on the chassis and tape the indicator wires so that they would be somewhere I could reach. After that, just fit the thing, a bit more filing and bolted down the 4 bolts. It took the doomed-headed-squared-oddities near where the hood will fit and two that look like wood bolts with washers through the fiberglass and chassis, near the headlight beams.
I'm very happy with how the car ir looking. After taking the photo placed some bubblewrap over the fiberglass, since I cover the car when not working on it and don't want the cover to scratch the fiberglass.
Next week will be attaching the scuttle and marking the hood for cutting (because of the airbox).
