20200503_110951.jpg Was hoping the new factory rear screen seal came ready with holes etc for two stage demister wiring, wrong.
Came up with the idea of the $10 hole punch tool to make the holes rather than using soldering iron to burn through. Did a practice hole in old seal, looks to be good. These really were hand built cars.

If you have trouble with the punch, just use a thin razor blade to slice a small hole to feed the wire through. Feeding those wires through and seating them neatly -and correctly - in the seal is right up there with the ****tiest jobs on these cars. It’s hard on the fingers!

Wow - the forum has an autocorrect for swearing!! **** that is pretty clever.
it is supposed to say S.H.I.T.T.I.E.S.T

Yep, sore fingers.
Seal on.

Nice work mate!

Just finished putting screens and sunroof back.in.
couldn't wait to wash as needed to drive it again and get a carton of beer to celebrate.
Next, oil leaks and clutch.

Back in the barn...yay

Congrats on the work Sean. Always loved a nice 3 litre Carrera. The beers sound a good way to celebrate! Nev

Thanks Nev.
It's a cracker car.
Just got back from grabbing a coffee surf check.
swell is up, back roads empty.
