I still have the original doghouse too for regular driving, the window one is for shows.
I have plans for "the gap"

Did a bit more work on the van this week....

I found where the electrical short on the van was - in the horn, while I was at it I swapped out the steering wheel for my new Moon metalflake one. I also fittted a new transparent dizzy cap and an MSD multispark unit.

That looks great Shaggy! Your entire dash looks sweet.

Are you liking the MSD Box? Where did you locate the transparent distributor cap?

Say, you never said, but how did your emissions test turn out? Do you think the MSD will improve things?

It's what you learn after you know it all, that counts...

Are you living to work, or working to live?

Emmisions were bad on on the passenger bank of cylinders last time. Unburnt fuel in exhaust, so hopefully the MSD unit will help with that and I'm thinking I'll swap the jets around on the carb and see if the problem transers banks. Just removed and re-installed the sump today and found the rear seal wasn't seated properly so hopefully that's the oil leak sorted and then I'll bring it for a run this weekend and then another emissions test during the week and see how it does.

The transparent dizzy cap I got from summit one of their own brand items I think.
