In case you think I haven't been doing anything...

So, it's been cold.  We've had a blizzard - 31" inches here.  (It's actually snowing right now!)  Even without a blizzard, lots of snow, horse shows and weekend work have kept me away from Project Zambezi more than I would like.  But, I've been working a few hours here and there, and the re-wiring is almost complete.  I still have to wire the headlights, and clean-up the engine wiring, but then I'll be able to start it up. 

I'm going blind reading the three different schematics...one has the detail on the wire size and the DIN codes...one has the color...and one is just like the first, but smaller and clearer. 

So I still need to re-finish the dash, so I'm not mounting the gauges and switches yet.  To re-finish the dash, I'm grinding-off all of the paint, adding a vinyl cover, and either walnut or aluminum inserts...I can't decide which, but I've got a few weeks to decide...Any suggestions?

I've been able to locate almost everything I needed, and something I didn't.  I spent a lot of time looking for the "Fasten Seat Belt" light for the dash.  Turns out, only the late '72's and 73's had this light.  So, I guess I'll be re-selling it, or adding it anyway. 

In an earlier post I mentioned that I fixed the ignition pigtail.  I didn't like the way it turned out, and I bought one from someone.  NO ONE was selling it, but I asked a guy who was also selling ignition switches to bundle it with the pigtail and he sold be both...great deal. 

So next week I'll try to finish the wiring, and get it started.

I'm already starting to 'look forward' to body work.
