Nice work Blue....couple of questions...are you wiring it completely custom to the build or are you using the old loom/ wiring diagrams to make then adapt?....what wire specs are you using for each circuit and how did you decide on the wires to use??

Cheers Steve :thumbright: :thumbright:

I have no factory gauges or switches and very few original electrical items so not useing any of the original dash/ underbonnet loom. The whole thing will be of my own design, I size the wire by the amp load it has to carry. All cable will be modern lightweight thinwall cable of course...
It's not that bad a job really, all my gauges are mechanical and the only electrical add on's are line lock and fuel pump, the rest is lights, indicators, wipers etc, bit like wiring up a street rod really.
