Friday the surgeon cleared me to lift up to 40 pounds. Won't be fully released for another five weeks.

Today I tried to get back into finishing the wiring harness. That included putting the front of the car on blocks so I could look underneath. I got to thinking that if I sort out the battery cables, box and circuit breaker it will force me to make decisions about the wiring harness and get it done.

As I mentioned before, I may replace the metal battery box I made years ago with a fiberglass one.



The front suspension/front end is the only part of the car I haven't done much work to yet.



I forget where I got the heavy gauge cables that I ran under the car as battery cables. I'm not happy with how they look, plus I'm kinda partial to using the cool Riviera battery cables I got from the salvage years ago.



I'll have to check the forum to see how other owners have run battery cables under the car.

Also today, I checked the replacement injector plugs I got from the salvage. Three of my plugs are broken. They'll probably still work but I should change them out right now while I'm here.



The plugs are the same, but of course the wiring is different. The GTZ injector harness has only three wires, the Twin Cam version has five.



I'll have to see if I can unpin each plug.

The weather is finally cooling off so as my stamina comes back maybe I can finally get this thing on the road.
