With more time on my hands lately I am making more progress on my 72B restoration. Maybe I will bring it to life this year. A restoration takes a lot of time when you are busy. I have had it about 17 years and back from the body shop 13 years ago, you would think that I would be finished by now. I made many upgrades with the main emphasis on safety. The photos show many of the wiring upgrades—a big jigsaw puzzle. If stock, I would have been done by now. Also I have been anal on the details—much time spent on details. The console has 2 new gauges+ OD warning light—lots of wiring and I have to add the stereo with 2 power connections, 8 speaker wires,, an antenna and the connection for seat heaters (my wife insisted on seat heaters—which led to an alternator upgrade!!). It can be hard to keep track of it all. Much PERSEVERANCE required.
I hope the rest of you are making progress on your projects.
Best regards,
Tim Ross

I share your pain Tim. I'm a master at procrastinating and getting involved in waaaaay to many side projects. The first restoration of the Jag took me 20+ years to get her on the road. This engine rebuild (and associated work) has already taken me three years too long.
I did notice that red is quite popular for our cars. See John's post follows.
