December

Thursday 1-12-11

Blew up the Sat nav power supply! Socket had been wired backwards as well. Replaced the 10A fuse and rewired and replaced centre console. Leave modifications until after test. SENT OFF IVA FORMS today for test 17 Jan onwards ->

Saturday 3-12-11

Going to attempt the fibreglassing of steering cowl today. First fibreglass mould kind of worked but needs to be better than that. Also gives a sore throat ! Need more ventilation I think.

Thursday 8-12-11

Discovered error in fog lamp wiring. Must ONLY work when dipped/main is ON (IVA requirement). Fixed. Also advised to remove wiper mechanism for IVA test. Covered wing mirror stalks for IVA. Disconnected cigar lighter for now. Need to add 27 Amp cable later (+fuse and connector block).  Might need to install before that as I may need the supply for the laptop.

Saturday 10-12-11

Made bottom mould. Harder than the top one. Now got to prepare for casting copies.

Sunday 11-12-11

Removed the originals from the moulds. Just need to tidy them up and prepare for casting copies.

Monday 12-12-11

Removed wiper motor and dashboard. Added bungs to cover the holes in the scuttle. Moved some coolant back into system from overflow. Noticed bottle is falling off. Need to sort out. (Sheet of aluminium?)
