Tedious work getting the camera turned into the switch box...













and done,




not shown is the one line harness we had lying around that had a group of 5 wires encased in it.

So within that one wire, I have my power into the camera, spliced to all four switches, and my 4 lines back out of the camera for my switches.

No mess, no taped up separate wires, just one clean line out of the camera.
It worked out well and this is my favorite part of the entire car.

This thing is so awesome, I can't wait to see it bagged!

Are you planning to cruise this down to H20? or better yet tow it with the old chevy.

oh she's making the drive, every mile of it.

I may have turned to the dark side and built a car on bags, but as long as it runs, Im still driving it to any destination I might have for it haha.

My buddy Bryan stopped by and shot some photos while we were in the shop.









Here are a couple random shots from the other day...

One with my rad, southern patina'd 79 C10 I moved home with from Nashville, she's a trooper.







A rolling shot with my buddy Eric in tow with his Studebaker Avanti. (which is an 82 Chevy powered Avanti, and may be next in line for bags)

[lewda]

Thanks a lot man!

My last Mercedes was a w108 as well, a 69 280s, before they started doing headrests and seat belts haha.



I actually took a picture of the finny at that same spot today.
Looks a lot different being stock height haha.
