TwinTurbos Build Diary....

[twinturbo]

Have had to remake my dash backing as I realised I want a OIL Pressure and water temperature Gauge and the acewell does not do that. And it was very fragile above the collumn.

So I have recut a new backing, reshaped it slightly and cut in 3 holes for 52mm Guages.

I was constructing a lower brace when our 8yr old also sugested using it to carry the wiring back to the scuttle.. What a Super Idea.. BIG credit to Toby on that one.

well apart from the wiring. I guess the dash is finsihed.





It's not perfect, there's a couple of mistakes. But it's passable.

And the old fog/reverse lamps. New LED "F" one on the way.

Hopefully the LED rear fog/rev should arrive today or tomorrow.

Making some slow progress on the dash wiring but getting there.

Not sure what to do next after the dash wiring, the garage is a tip again as I am in the process of stripping the engine out of my XR4x4 and getting the original no turbo ready to go in ( and trial fitting a Jaguar AJV6 as a point of interest....) so there's engines and parts of everything everywhere.....

Durite modular ones, I got mine from SVC . Come with their own multiplugs so they are fairly neat. I made the infill panel separate so that I can change things easily.

Looking good TT,
I'm swaying to getting black wings now after seeing your build. Do you have any photos of the whole car to see what it looks like.
