Re: A bus named Grace
So i got the wiring done in the dash!
as well as started fixing the Quaterlight windows
Flip the wiring was a ball ache the fool that fiddled in there last left a hole bunch off wires exposed didn't even bother to try and insulate them. any way after fixing this little problem i managed to fiddle with a few other bits and peaces. i think i may have to import a new windscreen rubber as the one sourced locally just is not up to scratch. It is to small for the gap and does not seal on the body nicely.
Till the next time
