Well: Got most of my data back, laptop is working...I hate these things. A few new photos and more to come when I get all of my files transferred from my desktop.
I have been working on the dash and interior, have most of my gauges, still waiting for an oil temp gauge, some indicator lamps mounted in dash and also switches. I ordered control knobs with controls for Heater, wiper, and dash lamps dimming. Dash is a bit rough now, need to complete all component mounting and then off to be finished after removing everything.
Steer column is installed, and wheel with quick disconnect, nice unit made by NRG, it always finds the same location when mounted and zero play.
Made a cover tube for the column with a turn sig/hi beam flasher switch that hides the wiring and is mostly a convenience I wanted.
Shifter and linkage fabbed and installed, linkage goes thru bulkhead with a spherical bearing mounted in a sleeve that protrudes thru, I left room for a small boot to isolate the interior from engine bay.
Rear uprights are complete except for caliper mounts, zero play in upright mounting but suspension travel (About 5") is super smooth. As I said in previous post the rear has almost zero toe steer, The uprights are set at 5 deg. pos. caster, with 1/2 deg. negative camber and everything is on rod ends or spherical bearings.
Tires on rear are Avons 27.5 X 12.5 X 15, although they actually show 25.5" diameter. Wheels are 14 X 15 Pin drive with 6 pin setup, I will take photos of the wheel snout and nut soon.
Overall width is just inside my bodywork and I will also post photos as I mount that.
Have some photos of the front setup, and I will get those up as I soon as I can.
Cheers
Phil
Almost forgot: I included some photos here of a new item, maybe some of you guys might be interested in these collectors.
