Looks like you used a chain saw to cut the wires.

 

(Spider) Hairy Picture!...forgot I posted that!....Chainsaw?...Pretty much...
2 center pins (9 & 10) was soldered together...Needed all 19 circuits!

Lesson learned again = Use a Soldering gun with a fine point and Lots of Heat...
I had to heat the tip with a Propane torch...

 

possible cause bad /low quality solder.when I got some proper stuff my job became much easier

 

Hi Nunattax....
That's a Good Point Man!...didn't cross my mind!
What's the brand/type of Proper Stuff Solder You Got?

 

I started out tring to work with DRAPER brand it was crap.my electric guy gave me 2ft of good stuff..a quality roll was e40 for about 100ft of it.when I would only use a foot or 2.

 

moved out...for a while...new electrical's next...

How's that Tub coming along 340? It's looking good...The Wires and Tires look aces on it...you have to have went around the block a few times with maximum motor sounds a blazin'...

 

Hi Stogy...thanks for checking in Man...
I haven't been on The HAMB for a while now...
Been working on the Truck and Life's "Curve Balls"...

I just finished the wiring diagram...(I was out of computer for a while & I have to draw it to wire it right!)
Includes some diodes (hoping to prevent frying the Brain in "Ol'Smokey" again)

[internal]

Going to build me a hitch so I can tow it easily back and forth to the garage and get the wiring done...
(Almost there)
Remember when I cut out the Crap Relays with the wiring nightmare?
New Fuse / Relay Box - Almost done ~ a year ago...time to finish and drive it this summer.

Again thanks for the "Kick" Stooge!

 

back in the Garage again.....

@340HilbornDuster, I missed your update, good to see you back on it...truly you're honing in on the 4th quarter milestone...The truck looks fantastic and understandably handy too...

I totally get life effecting things as well...

 

I think this might be it...?....Perfect Prefect...

 

Are you going to add metal underneath, ends and hinge on top to attach to a hood top and fair in the bottom to the frame?

 

Probably add metal front and back...
Solid base for a future Hood.
I like the line that the louvers bring.
I like the swoop below...and will try to Continue that line.
I think it'll be hard tie in to the frame and make it look good though?

I just found/ notched them yesterday ...

We'll see - Get it running first!

 

Old dash switch wiring removed.

New wiring with Quick Connectors when removing dash...

Removed all the Plastic sleeves on crimps and use shrink hose instead...Much cleaner! Used Shrink hose over terminals too!

 

Almost there....Cleaned and Organized...The Quick Connectors makes it workable!

Soon!...(Snart så Djävlar blir det åka av....)
- Change Oil in Trans & Engine
- Test the Breaks...
- Check for Leaks
- Finish Gas Pedal install
- Torque the Bone Joint Bolts and Lock (And check all other bolts in the car)
- And probably ~10 other things I'll find
And then...(to start the inspection process)
- Line up / bolt on the Upper Cowl.
- Fix the windshield stanchion brackets
- "Put" the windsheild in/on
- Shop the Seats.
- Install Seat Belts.
- Install Windshield wiper

 

Cool. Nice to see you working on it again.
Its a damn cool hotrod.

 

Man Tackar.!...Thank You Sir!

Like Your Footer - True That!

 

Where did you buy the wiring sleeve to run the wires in? Thanks Frank

 

E-Bay somewhere (long time ago) ..search for "Braided PET Expandable Sleeve "

 

Thanks

 

2 main termination blocks wired up...

Bolted up...

The wires "kinda" disappears. After some tie wrap dress-up it should be pretty neat...at least compared to before...?

- EFI Computer & Ignition pretty much done (Load the Software on my new laptop & Remember how to hook it up...I think I switched to BlueTooth receiver last time...or was it 9pin to USB?)


B4 (Old Historic Picture)

 

Panorama Picture....(Lotso Crap in a small place...)
Dash Connectors works Great!

 

CHASING GHOSTS!...
I had all the wiring working...after i figured out that the large dash connector was "reversible" (even though it has 2 index tabs)
...that's another story...

I installed the Cowl Top Panel...(to figure out by windshield stantions).....NO MORE POWER!...DEAD!
I blew a 30A glass fuse in the back...Couldn't see nay pinched wire anywhere...took it back off.
Must have touched the power connection to the relay box...(Insulated it)

I put in 2 fuse holders in the back (one spare / Spare fuse holder)
Put the spare in (blew right away!!)..or so i thought...Measured it - OPEN!

But it looks perfect...
Removed feed wire - had weird up and down numbers to ground...when wiggling the wire..?
Open up the harness / covers...nothing wrong!?
The Ghost - Spare Fuse was Bad from the factory...

 

What Else have I done...
Chopped the Austin Seat frames...

Also cut out the front seat back panel - will weld in some sheet metal

Much Better height

 

Replacing all the fuel lines ... it's 45 PSI...
Fuel pump was to high up...needed to move down to suck.
Made a new bracket...out of an old garage door bracket...

Are those switch nobs to "Cheasy"

Nut and Bolt everything - and some tuning...
