So I hooked up the battery today, and got the headlights and turn signals working. Headlights worked right away, though one of my bulbs is out (low beam, swapped sides and it was still out). Got the turn signals to blink as well, with a little trial and error at the flasher module. Nothing like unmarked terminals to make things interesting.

Haven't tried to start the car yet, but so far, the new harness seems to be working well. Went in easily, and pretty much everything matched up perfectly. A big thanks to the folks at British Wiring for a good product.
 
You'll be rollin' soon! Ain't it neat to see things work as they were intended, after putting the "sweat equity" into it?!? Now the electrics will NEVER fool you. "Become ONE with the horse!"
 
Back from the parts store, with a couple of finds. First, they had a headlight in stock, which was a somewhat unexpected pleasure. Also, they had the only GL4 gear oil I've seen yet (85W90), so I got some for the rear diff. A gallon of it, so I should be set for a while.

Off to a gig now, but I'm on track to have everything tested out tomorrow night. Moss order comes in on Monday, and we should be buttoned up and ready to go.
