I have started doing the electrics. Actually I only have torn some old wires away. Also sanded all the surface rust off from the footwells(not sure of the word, but you'll see picture later), and coated that with zinc paint.
I also cut a thick piece of metal where to mount new shifter(B&M Megashifter).
I had to cut a rail for the cable. Unfortunately I allready welded the metal plate on, because I think that the cable is not getting enough room. I'll have to modify that again.

I assembled the wires of the dash to two "connectors/plugs"(whatever they are called), so that if I need to take the dash of, I only have to unplug these.
Other one is male and other is female connector so I won't mix themselves
I'll wire the sensors soon.

The zinc paint still wet in drivers footwell. I'll have to paint some mechanically more durable paint over that because this comes easily off when there is some kind of friction/rubbing.

Same operation to the spare tire compartment. The original spare tire from 1982 was still in good condition
looked more like a motorcycle tire lol.

The cable rail still needs some modification, but it actually works now, but I think that's too sharp angle to leave it that way.
I now have two days to fully work on the car. And if I feel up to it, I may have some wiring done. Let's hope so.
Here's the pic of my other DD, I like it alot. Actually I bought this to patch the lack of being able to drive a v8 US car(my mustang).
