still no start yet, get my new ignition wires today. Had to run a ground to the block to get proper groundage. I DID get the ps seat mounted in though, time to get the ds brakets all fabbed up so i can mount that one as well.

OK got the motor going today finally! she sounds wicked w/o any rear exhaust, my old one wont work w/ the new heat exchangers. Also got my euro marker lights installed, made them more authentic by wiring some 924s marker lights into the lower portion of the markers and making a metal divider for the housing, works great!

got the ds seat mounted up, both axels, shift linkage, new clutch cable and e-brakes all hooked up. Fired her up last nite and drove it down the driveway under its own power. Hard to judge from such a short trip but she seems peppy. Left some rubber marks in the driveway.
