Leave the outside panel of the drivers foot box off. It will make working inside the foot box easier, ie installing sound and heat barrier, carpet, dead pedal, brake and clutch foot pad adjustments, just to name a few.
Exactly. If you look close, the top and and outside panels are still clecoed in. I'll wait until I absolutely have to rivet them in.Leave the outside panel of the drivers foot box off.

Looking good man. I may check out those line brackets for my Exocet too.One more picture before I'm gone for 3 weeks.
I just set a bunch of the cockpit panels in place for fitment. When I get home, I'll run brake lines and rivet the rest of the panels in. By the time I get home, I should have my engine and transmission.
I really like them. Lines can easily be removed and reinstalled, which I've had to do. The guy I bought them from said they are very popular with off-roaders too, because they can unsnap the lines to get rocks and debris out from behind lines. They make a nice, clean install.Looking good man. I may check out those line brackets for my Exocet too.

Ready for gauges.

Gauges installed. Just need to add some switches and led lights. Wiring all the gauges will be saved for tomorrow.
Perseverance and patience will take you a long way, If you need to, walk away. As they say do it right or do it over. Nice catch on the plug pins btw, not everyone would have caught that. Way easier to fix it now than later when you’re to sort out the bugsTedious is right. Plus things like that plug on my harness that is messed up, slows things down.
Speaking of wiring, take a look at this plug and tell me what's wrong.View attachment 1839686
