Side Stepped ...
Yep will wind 'em back when I get round to it ...
In the mean time, got round to cleaning up the Running Boards ...
And test fitting :
Seems to fit Ok, just need to straighten them a bit, find some new mounting hardware & install them ...

Full Scale ...
Got the drawing I had done earlier printed out @ 1:1 ...
Checked to see how good it measured up :
& laid out some vinyl to make sure it all fits :
Found a few errors that will need tweaking when I get round to it ... :/
Hope to do some more over the Christmas break ...

Well that's one way to get a low range light! Very nice work, going above and beyond
BUT! there's an error! The factory low range light says "Lo" not "Low" !!!
Actually yours looks better, with the wheel diagrams as well.
And those door cards, I can tell those are going to be seriously nice Would you mind terribly if I copied them for my wagon? I'll pay royalties honest!!
Will it ever end!?

Yeah, my thoughts were when I did the first draft ( which was same as the original ) that it didn't 'look right' + something was missing, so ended up making it slightly different with few tweaks that I wanted & made it look as if it came from factory ...
P.S - Added a few extra details to the headlight as well ( just in case you missed it ) ...
Painted the back in black :
& Peeled the cover to reveal :
I'll have to see how it turns out & post some more pictures when I get round to installing it ...

Covered ...
Over the Christmas period I finally got round to start fixing the Steering Wheel Cover :
All have to do now is to finish hand stitching it ... :/
( read 'it takes forever' )

Winning ...
Ha - Nah Bennie, I still need to do the fitting to the actual wheel ( there's been a hold up on the rubber underlay which needs fixing ) which might take a while ... :/
P.S. - added a few more shots of the process though ...
Yeah the doors were a total 'wow' find moment ... (I wasn't even looking for them ) So yeah as soon as I saw 'em, said 'yep I'll have those' ... :win:
Will post some more updates when I get round to it ...

Sidetracked ...
Sorry to report - Its been very slow in the 'working on this' department - As I've been sidetracked by health issues ( compressed disc L5 ) & will attempt to do some updates when I can ...
Have done some work on the gearbox - will post some updates on that later.
Also just went back through the thread & updated as many of the links as I could ... FU PB ... :/
