A couple more jobs done today.
Had to fix again the terminals on the wires for the oil pressure. One was pulled like if someone had given a pull on the wire. When I was working on it, since both wires were ties together, I pulled the other one...
Then, held the scuttle in place and drilled through the bulkhead and scuttle to hold the two pieces together. Released the scuttle to enlarge the holes and insert rivnuts. After that, got it in place and held it down on the chassis and the bulkhead to it. Since this part was done, attached the dash back to the bulkhead. The car is drivable once again!
Then I moved into understanding how the rubber straps that hold the hood on the car have to be installed. Was interrupted by a visiting neighbour. Since I had promised to take the kid to the movies after lunch, packed it all up after the neighbour was gone. Just spent 5 minutes on the storage room testing the strap with two pieces of wood. I understood the logic, just need to make a template with the distance between holes and then drill the chassis and hood. But it will have to be next week.
