Heat protection
Heat covers from the exhaust, some time ago I've made this steel plates to protect the battery cable and petrol steel line, the other evening it was mounted on the frame. Great!
Dash plates
Tonight I've made steelplates that covers the space under the dash and floor. It will be covered with fabric later on. Makes the inside of car look calm - since all cables and hoses do not show anymore.

Window frames
Tonight I have cutted the aluminium frame's, they need to be shopped down 3 ince's since my body are lowered 3 ince's from start. Have aslo cuttet the door (inner) frames. These frames I've bought in U.s 4 years ago so i's nice to unpack them and mount them finally.

Engine cooler, with thermos.
Have mounted a expanion "thermos" on the radiator. Are connected with a soft hose to the lid of the radiator. If it get too hot the "steam" and hot water will flow to the expansion thermos.
When needed the "extra" water will run back to the radiator, smart and simple. Great !
Power window breakers/holders
Have made new holders and mounted on left and right side of the "new" wall -they are for the
electric engines inside the doors.

Hoses for heater - holder.
Needed holders for the hoses that runs to the heater unit inside the car, these hoses must not touch the very hot engine exhaust pipes.
Rear view mirror
I've bought this mirror over two years ago, now this week I finally could make a mounting plate to it and see how nice the mirrow looks when in place - neat !

Hatshelf with isolation
Have finished the welding of the hatshelf below the window with black paint and isolation. Looks neat when in place. Needs to be dressed with some nice looking fabrics later on. Now it's start up that are the goal so I'll do it sometime in the future.
Heat in the cabin
This week I've got the heater in place - finally. It's an old FORD heater complete with fan. Has been rebuild (of course) the coppertubes are new welded in other direction. Also connected up to window outlets with silverpaper hoses. This are law in sweden to have this heater since we have cold weather 6-7 months.
Time Counter
Have bought and installed a timecounter for the engine, can be nice to have later on to see how many hour's the engine have runned. Practical also for the oil changing intervals.
