Time flies, a year between updates! House reno's have unfortunately taken priority over the Zed but lately have been making a little bit of time to get a few things done which is exciting. Posting here to try and keep myself motivated as much as anything - slow progress is better than no progress. Got the car out of the shed and gave it a quick wash with the wheels on all round - still a big fan of the colour and the wheel combination. Finally finished off the bulk of the wiring and installed the fuse box in its final location. Final hurdle was getting the LED indicators working but using an electronic flasher unit (Narva Flasher Unit LED 12V 2 Pin 68249BL) sorted it out. Will likely need to sort out a cover for the fuse box eventually given how close it is to the accelerator pedal. Made a start on cleaning up the quarter glass. Next step is to install seals all around for windows & doors. And also finished off the last section of exhaust so it doesn't sound like a monster truck and I can move the car around shortly. Not the greatest welding job (or most tightly tucked exhaust) but it will do for now. Fairly happy with how it sounds as well. Has a nice rumble and a bit of a choppy idle too. Quick video (with my temporary fuel tank) below: Next steps are finish off the rear brakes so it can finally move and stop under its own steam!

This was sent to Gav - Shocking news today about Linton: "Hey Mate I'm Stacie - Linton's daughter. Unfortunately I have some awful news to share and I wasn't sure how to go about it but as I saw you had messaged with him on a few posts and am an admin I'm reaching out to you. I wanted to let you and the Vic guys know that dad was involved in a fatal truck accident on Tuesday 23rd of July at 615am. He was ever so grateful to this community and really enjoyed the Christmas BBQ in Melbourne and the help he received from all of the members on the forum. Would you please share this information for anyone who knew him. I don't think there will be anyone but I'm happy for you to share my mobile number with a a few trusted members if they wanted to make contact at all. The only name I can think of is Gordon? I'll attach the Facebook link which has his memorial announcement on it. If anyone is included to leave a memory or message there they can. Sorry I couldn't get a more specific link. Apologies for delivering the news this way https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100026160045544
