I patched the floor using a couple layers of fiberglass mesh with resin. Worked great just like the several holes in the trunk. I painted with Rustoleum rusty metal primer. I also undercoated the patched areas underneath and still need to do touchup black underneath.

After taking care of a few details underneath with the speedometer cable clips and parking brake cables I will move to the wiring and gauges.

I now have both the new engine harness and front lighting harness. I will plug them both into the firewall bulk head . For now I will hook up the engine wiring, starter, oil pressure, volt and water temp gauges.

The fuses in the fuse block have been in there at least 33 years... I guess I should replace them all.

Also, I stopped by a local exhaust fabricator today and it looks like when the time comes I will have them make a 2 1/2 system using Flowmaster mufflers.

I need to buy a battery because I will need one soon!
