Interesting, it is definitely a bit of an oddball.

After this I threw a motor at it as described earlier. Then a few patches on the front guards This was an old repair. It looks like the bottom of another guard had been welded on and bogged over but never finished. Just rewelded it a bit better and called it good. 9FEDFEF5-130B-4346-8D02-9E0DBEA6E8D...

Then it was painting time. So the plan here was always to use up paint I had lying around. First up was crc rust converter. I got this for the 1200 a couple of years ago but it left a rusty looking finish after a couple of weeks that I wasn’t to happy with. I let this cure for a day then put on some...

One more patch to do in the front left corner 3AD12E1D-5068-48FD-8FB3-104915F215BC.jpeg 53D9DBD3-0F66-4BD6-8E59-A0A8F5AC5E91.jpeg The front wings had a lot of surface rust on the outside so I didn’t muck around here, sprayed them down with paint stripper then ran over it with a wire buff. The engine...

Thanks Tim! Hope you are doing well.

Right, rewind back in time a bit and this was staring at me while I pulled the head off the E15. CCF24EFD-8A00-4B85-9F1C-606E8F1B86CE.jpeg Hmmm, bright white paint on a plate put over the firewall. Gee I wonder what ever could it be behind it? A priceless artwork perhaps? Maybe a winning lotto ticke...

Oh did I mention the seats were a little uncomfortable
Yes those pillows go straight through the seat and onto the floor lol.

I would personally pull the earths of and check them, or run a jumper cable to each side from the battery negative. The loom itself looks ok to me at a glance. If one side switches high to low i would think the harness itself was ok. If you have a tester or volt meter you could disconnect the plugs ...
