CGT Restoration - Update

Yes there might be a size that may work, I'll fax this over to Speedy to see if it will work. Item L36, Thanks for your help, I took some pic's at night so they are a little "grainy".
Updated my pics, got the right seal from Spanaer, they ship quick, had it in 3 days. The only deal was you had to buy 50 feet(15M). Reasonable cost. So have some spare stock. Front glass is done, just to install.

Completed my wiring finally, added turn signals and a couple 12 volt accessory power plugs for cell phone chargers etc.

This right hand drive CGT will be a driver so signals will be an absolute must, a couple amber LED's signal for the front, they are small yet very bright. Rears are going to be stock, but will have 2 larger red LED's for travel which can be quickly removed with quick connectors. Visually you will only see the front 2.

The dash was a combination of an NOS cab 13 and a home made turn signal harness for the chassis.I used a 7 wire Grote turn switch with 40's look which gave me 4 way hazard functions too.
I still managed to incorporate all the original CGT dash function switches too so in the end I didn't have to compromise any of the original set up.
The power supply at dash expanded to 5 circuit breakers which required me to make up a board in order to segregate some of the circuits as compared to the original schematic.

Next week the nose will go on the cab for the last time. Getting close to road test time, just in time for Xmas!
