Thanks for the switch info Keith,
Also for your PM about the h/brake boot. I will still go in for a shift boot though.
Re. the switches I have asked about, they are not mine. The enquiry is for someone else who was wondering what they were. I have an interest in the headlight wiring and may buy it if suitable.
Some time ago, I was negotiating to buy a cache of original Blitz dash switches. The ball topped toggles, and including several fuel switches. That did not come off as the potential seller wants to 'think about it' for a while. I take it thats code for 'see how much I can wring out of someone & keep you as a backup plan'. Still, good luck. My plan 'B' for switches was for ones with correct positions, without the ball top. These are now installed in the dash and don't look half bad! It was one of the very few jobs I could do today that didn't require power or dry weather. With all switches other than fuel selector, I have used the [Mom.On-OFF-ON] type. These were the best I could get that have an OFF position that it directly vertical. Obviously the fuel switch is ON-OFF-ON.
Cab rear panel was block sanded this morning. Only one small area required a further skim of blade putty. If fine weather tomorrow i'll try to get the thing painted. The rifle attaching brackets were straightened and the spring steel 'jaws' where rifle clips in needed to have a minor change to alignment, for rifle to sit properly. I have some deac. SMLE & 'Jungle Carbine' rifles here and I am about to get one out to make a pattern for the wooden blocks that bolt onto floor of cab.
Does anyone have any photos of these that I can have a look at, please?
I want to make these in one piece, using a router for removing the wood where rifle goes and band saw to form outer edge. May start on this tomorrow if weather is bad. Otherwise, the windscreen frame beckons.
Still no 1/4in slot head CSK bolts! They are on back order, apparently.
