Finished the outside of the fuel tank and painted, enterior was done previously with the red stuff.

Found another part, was looking around and noted that the dash, the front had not been striped and painted ready for the vinel.

That's it thats all I can find and beleive me I been looking. Hay the junk stearing wheel I got even looks preaty good especialy for a temp one.
 
Jack, did you find any writing, in grease pencil or chalk, on the back of the dash? That's where they scribbled the options on it when they built it. Little tidbits like rev counter, or heater.

Yep did, and will not touch the back of the dash except to put my name and date of restoration.

In fact let me go see what it says exactely.
 
OK, back of dash says:

RED
H
R/C
W/V
M/H
24SL
3L

Whats that all mean?
 
Jack, the only ones I'm sure of are:
Red = Color (Not sure if interior or exterior, though.)
H = Heater
R/C = Rev counter
M/H = MPH Speedometer

I don't know if Terry Horlers' book breaks any of this down or not. My copy is on the other side of the country.

I think W/V is actually W/W for Windscreen Washer
 
That all makes sense to me, thanks.
