Saturday - Odd Jobs - Part 2:
At some point I need to transfer the wiring from the old lights to the new 'old' Lucas lights that Micky1Mo sent me.



I also need to work out the best way to fix these to the body shell, as the holes currently don't line up.



Unfortunately, as the lenses are made of glass, I can't cut any reliefs into them the same way that I did with the plastic lenses at the front.

Whilst it was too late in the day to start applying Tetroseal, I was able to start some masking off.





Hopefully, this will leave me with a crisp line between the BRG and the Black.

I then did a bit of scrubbing to clean up some of the old Tetroseal areas.





As this will make it easier to see which areas need a top up of Tetroseal when I have my brush out.

The last area I looked at due to the fading light and other stuff I had to do was the fuse box.
( Please excuse a run of blurred photos. )



I've never liked the idea of having the fuse box on display, so I am going to make a cover for it.



The cover will be a very basic design.



So when I get a chance I will cut this out of my last bit of alloy sheet.



With a bit of luck, I might get a chance to chip away at a few more jobs tomorrow.

So until then, take care, Paul.
