1962 TR4, Photo Contest

Well, not literally, but I've made a tremendous amount of progress over the last two weeks. I've laid out the wiring harness, found an exceptable plinth and the car keeps coming together. If I knew more, I could probably get the car started this weekend. My lastest request would be for all of those who have encouraged me to keep working on the car myself. I need pictures of any and all wiring connections! My first request would be for someone to snap a few pictures of how and where my car grounds. Remember I converting to a negative ground. I believe the battery grounds on the driverside firewall, but what about the engine? Where does the engine ground strap go? What locations do I use? How and where does the oil pressure line clip to the engine or does it just clip to the firewall? So as you can probably tell, I need pictures shot down and in by the engine and firewall. I've got tons of pictures of the tops of TR4 engines, but few showing things like the starter and starter solenoid. So if you can help out, please do. You can post your pictures or e-mail directly to labrotphoto@gotsky.com. I can't have too many so please help. You've got me this far!

Tr6 gounds its motor (or is it engine) at the rear by the battery.

Larry,
I sent you some photos via email. Hope they help out.

Instead of relocating the ground strap, can't you just spin the battery 180? If strap length is a concern, you can buy batteries with center mount terminals that should work.
Sorry, I don't have any pictures.
