There are still a few jobs left to sort out before I can take Harry for it's first test drive and brake lights is one of them.

In this episode I finally sort out the bulk of my wiring issues on Harry 911 and start to tackle the braking system... it doesn't exactly go to plan.

We are getting very close now. This week I get some help from Mrs Jeff to bleed the brakes and I put the rear end of the car back together.

This week, Harry finally moves under his own power, but not until I change the clutch... a couple of times..

Harry is finally moving under its own power and now it is time to get it tuned so it can be driven properly.

After last weeks run on the dyno, the biggest issue left on Harry 911 is the clutch. This week I hopefully sort it out for good.

This week it is time to sort this clutch out on Harry 911 once and for all, then maybe take it for a quick sneaky drive.

This week I tackle a bunch of little bits and pieces to finish off Harry, with mixed success.

This week I finish up a bunch of small things to get the car finally ready for the engineer to give it the tick for the road.

I am now onto my punch list of jobs to tackle on Harry, and one of them is to fix up the paint chips on the car.

I know so many of you have missed the fun times that sanding brings, so I have brought it back for you all to enjoy!

Epic journey, watched the entire series over quarantine. Beautiful car and I'm sure the fun of sorting is just now beginning.
