Walter, coming along nicely. Might I make a small suggestion and hope not to offend. Run a small rubber hose on the choke and heater cable that will clear the battery terminal and cable. Just split a hose and stick it over them. You would be surprised how many shorts start right there. Spitfires and TR,s all seem to have this problem, remove for show of course. Wayne
 
Thanks for the tip Wayne. I'm not gonna worry about it right now, because this one needs alot of work before I drive it. While it runs good, non of the hydraulics work, and almost none of the electricals work. I have a horn that works, though not by using the horn button, but rather a push button on the dash, and the right turn signal works. I would just clean all the connections and drive it, but sadly the wiring has been butchered, and repaired all over the car, so I'll probably just rewire the entire thing.
