That's the same junction board I have in my truck, (under the passenger seat). I didn't wire mine, (Terry T did, with amendments to the dashboard by Olds). I admire those who practice the wiring black art. Nicely done Sir.

Very neat sir. As is everything you have done on this vehicle. Good luck for March.
Agree about the complexity of modern vehicle wiring. My Jag has five fuse boxes with 78 fuses and 39 relays ! Three fuses and one relay (indicators) are all I'm planning. Though this means sourcing period switches etc. as modern stuff isn't designed to take the loads.

Getting older but no wiser! Just using bigger hammers.
The answer to most problems, fire and lots of it.

Be careful of the sva Olds, there's a good reason modern cars went to rocker switches.

Don't worry -I'm bringing the average down by being really slow & inefficient with mine.

There is much satisfaction to be had by going back to basics ....... I needed a square end on a round shaft, so it was out with the files and a tub of elbow grease Whoooo Hooooo, happy days Nothing to do with cars I'm afraid, but it does have a wheel ....... my new BBQ is taking shape,  From Paul's workshop.

That's a full-on hog roast, not just a barbeque!
Love the name -my welder's called Ol' Sparky. That's a cool wheel. Did you make it yourself?

The wheel came from ebay, complete with woodworm holes  it was off an old water valve. The shaft will have pair of pulleys on for cables to raise and lower the grill. |

And done a very good job of it too.
