Ugh... very little progress.

I'm afraid that my target of finishing the car 'sometime in July' is going to be missed by some margin.

I'm still wiring the thing and to be honest it's led to a severe drop in enthusiasm. It's very nearly there however - the fuel pump runs, the starter solenoid clicks when it should and the dials seem to work. All that is left is to wire coils, the alternator, the neutral light and then the car is ready to start. That will just leave the SPA dual gauge which can be done last.

So that's it. Very little to report. I'm a bit fed up with my slow progress. It seems to be a vicious cycle.

I have a couple of days booked-off work in the next fortnight so hopefully I'll start the engine briefly to prove that it (and my cut 'n' shut wiring loom) are OK.

Christmas is coming... :(
