So, rather than battle with the wheel arch trim, I turned my attention to the passenger side dashboard. It now looks like this inside (apologies for the dark pictures) :

Looking good Jared. Nice location for the cut-off switch :)

Just in case anyone was interested, I have two two pin plug sockets for a lead light that I'll be keeping in the car, one on either side of the dashes. The socket looks like this :

 

 

And the plug looks like this :

 

 

Also, here's a daytime picture of the dash :

Thanks man  That was the idea!

Wheels off, car on stands and covered up. I'm just going to leave it until I know what I want to do exactly. It will need a respray, that's for sure. I keep finding more and more things wrong with the paint. I'm also getting a little irritated by the lack or real progress and lack of funds for the car. So, until next time.

Not a chance. She won't be forgotten. I'll still be finding parts for her, but I need to sort the paint. It really is a bother to me, especially after all the time and effort I've put in . . .

I haven't touched her in a month. I'm hoping to get the reps from Glasurit to have a look at my car when they make a turn here this week.

 

In other news, this came from Aus :

 

 

And some Minispares items that have taken forever to get to me :

 

 

I'm still waiting for my pressure release valve from months ago . . .
