I am starting this thread "in medias res" with the car as it is today.
Then I will post a confusing mix of past and present, showing the project updates and process. Promise to nerd out on the details. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) . |

Really tired of rust repair, so doing some fun detours along the way.
Found a ø60mm vdo gauge from a boat, and made the dashboard mount. Gauge still needs new face and black trim.. Also bought a 70s Heuer clubmaster stopwatch, really cool looking with the green/red/black anodized buttons. Made a mount for this one too. cleaned up and added blue paint on the defroster panel. Since the stopwatch is pretty far away from the driver I thought I make a mechanism to operate it from driver pos. Lots of small parts. Working mechanism, pres to start, press a little harder to stop. (note the 10.9 bolts (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) ) Lever had to be red. Probably never going to use this set up, but looks kind of cool I think. |
