Little more work on the dash. Finally got around to putting in a voltmeter in place of the amp meter. https://youtube.com/@brianwil89

Have you checked AMD or Summit ?

Have you thought about getting new ones ?

Picked up a little something last weekend. Not sure if I will put it in the Scamp or Duster.

Put a new wood grain inlay on the gauge cluster. I’m very happy with the results.

Installed a USB port the other day. I think it turned out pretty good.

Yes. I just came across Bob’s posts and so far they’re all very interesting and good information.

Ok. Makes sense now. Thanks

If October is the first month and starting with “A” wouldn’t September be the 12th month ? “L” ??

What are the “letters “ for the months on the date code ?

Worked on a few things the pass week or so. Got the firewall in last night and a little more done on the dashboard.

Made some progress on the dash

That’s a possibility, I didn’t think of that but I was thinking maybe they went to the two silver things on the back of the cluster that don’t have wires going to them. One is for voltage for the gauges the other maybe the radio ??

Getting ready to take the dash apart. I see two wires that were unplugged. Not sure witch wire goes where. Anyone know ?

Cleaned up one of my 15x8 rims today.

What did you use for tint and are you going with single or two stage paint ?

May have to aim for next year? Guess well just do what I can do. Yes two times. First time was the worst. Spent time in the hospital. This time not so bad. Good thing I got that shot, right ?

Well I’m starting to get worried about my goal. I’m not making much progress on the car. The weather has been crap and now I’m just getting over Covid for the second time in 7 months. I’m also having trouble getting some parts with back order problems. I did have one show up yesterday that I...

I vote for pink

Not much work going on. But parts keep coming in.

Summit box showed up today.

Been ordering same parts the past few weeks so I have them on hand when I need them. A few of them are of course on back order until May and a few have shown up. Trying to get the higher priced things out of the way. And man have prices gone up. I ordered a Shark’s tooth grill complete also...

Got a little work done on the Duster. Got the old door skin off and the new one just hanging in place. I was also able to get the old firewall out and new one set in place. Both need some fine tuning before I make them permanent.

looks sharp. How close to the springs ?

I will probably do the bed liner on the under side as well. I did that on my Scamp.

We’ve been together for about 25 years now. I’ve been into cars since I was 16. She has never wanted to come to the barn and work on anything with me. As far as she knows I building it to sell it.

As for now I have put an epoxy primer on it and need to start replacing metal.

Well come February it will be 2 years ago I bought a 1971 Duster to build for my wife. But she doesn’t know that it’s going to be her’s. I started on it last spring and was starting to make some progress and then we had a wedding in August for my step son and vacation (Power tour) in late August...

My Scamp had 245 on it when I towed it home. Looked way to small. I knew back in the 80s on my first Scamp I ran a L60/14 so I knew I could get a bigger tire under the car. Right now I have a 7 1/4 under it and plan to swap over to an 8.75 when I round up the rest of the parts I need. So I’ll be...
