Today I tackled the instrument panel. It is a simple black metal faceplate that has rust and corrosion on it, but to repaint it required it to be removed. Sounds simple? Well it would have been, except that it had 13 various dials and lights attached to it, and some of those dials had as many as 10 separate wires attached. It is a real rats nest!
So, it required careful labelling and photographing of all of the wires and pieces as I disassembled them so I have even a vague hope of getting it put back together again.
It was a four hour project to disassemble, and will take at least that to reassemble once it is painted.
