1971 Restoration by green96v4

as promised some shots of the interior and where I'm up to, guess the wires may make more sense when the dash/instruments are in place

I've already seen from one of Dirtbiker's shots where the top bracket for the dash fixes, so that's good!

and another of a more complete engine bay

Just got my refurbished radiator back from a repair specialist (I was just going to repaint it, but had some of the veins fall apart - when I took it in he pressure tested it and showed me a tiny perforation, so I'm glad I didn't cut corners!

Expansion tank still needs fixing properly, but you get the idea

Long weekend here in Canada so I'll be attempting the dashboard and wiring!!!!!!

and the dash in, still a couple of black earth wires I can't figure out (and the Haynes Manual is just adding to the confusion!!)

Les Leston wooden wheel was rescued from a rotting barn find, I'll need to figure out a horn wire as it's a different boss design (standard wheel has the constant contact, but this one doesn't)
