Stop in for a cup of coffee

Yesterday, neighbor and I got the driver's side aftermarket rear inner door panel in the convertible.
Initially I didn't think it was going to work. A little modifications and couple new drill holes to button it up.
The rear side of it against the back seat sits 1/4 to 1/2" higher than the passenger side. You'd never notice unless you knew.
I figured its safe to tell you, because you old farts will have forgotten by the next time you see the car...:D
 
Hey men. Stopping for some sleep. Will put me behind schedule
Well sleep or find a slezzy truck stop and catch some ZZZZ. Besides do you really have a schedule, or is it just where you'd like to be??

What brand?
 
What brand?
I'm not sure never could find one. I bought it at Carlisle a couple years ago.
Looks just like the real thing. The top which has the three screw holes attaching at the rear window trim is flat instead of the slight slope factory ones had.
You put it up initially and it looks to be a 1/2 inch off at the back end from fitting. I drilled a new screw hole for the back and floor bracket. Like I sad sits a smidge higher but no big deal.
 
Yup been doing a crapload of 100 point and a bunch of custom ones, The hundred point take most of the day to do. Really hard to make them look new.
 
frank's more of a help here than I am.
Not that it should matter much but lets see if you can explain what you've got here. yes no is fine
This is a 12 Volt battery powered system. Yes
Battery positive is connected to the engine block or head.yes
Battery negative goes through an on/off switch to the coil negative.yes
Flip the power on (or connect the wire) and the coil positive shows 12 Volts. Yes
Coil positive leads to the points.
yes

thanks
 
Morning. still no sun. Rain is iffy today.
still havent heard from customer,owner cant drive vehicle, i asked that the son call,hes the one driving it. So we booked the day, but not the time. I know it needs parts,but son needs to call so i can order correct stuff. Frustrating.
 
Good morning folks! I'm going to start my day off by buying a stranger a cup of coffee at the coffee shop. Who knows, it may make someone's day better. Hope everyone has a good one.
 
So if there is 12 V on both sides of the coil primary, no current is running through it.
Whether that's because the points are open, not connecting to ground, or something else...???

Correct, no current running through it, but you don't know the reason for it until further tests.
