Today we had to do some repairs: new sparking plugs, new ignition cables, exchange of 5 defect rear lights. Then we had to make a new scanner blackout because the old one had been damaged. Additionally, we secured the two new car batteries and installed the rear roller blind.

Today, I built the tan interior into my car. Some parts are still missing, because my headliner and sail panels are still at the saddler's house. Additionally, I built the lower console into the car. Yet, there are no functions. The buttons will be connected later.

Over the last days, the paint shop completely stripped the old paint from the middle and rear areas of the car. There also are some problems: The cowl induction hood has worse rust problems than they first thought and the front will not be fitting perfectly, too. But I'm sure, they'll find solutions for that.

Today, I got my Grant steering wheel. In Germany, I'm not allowed to use the gullwing, so I had to get another round one. I'll only mount my gullwing for shows and photos.
