The recently arrived inspection light was disassembled Friday nocte, and is now etch primed. It is a Lucas type. I should get it painted tomorrow. New (correct type) electrical wire has been ordered from USA. New aligator clips yet to be purchased.

I got back onto making the front mud flaps again this afternoon. All of the metal pieces have been fabricated and fit together well. I suspect the photo I was working off had a round bar weight at the bottom, but I will be using a piece of flat bar that will be easier for the guys to sew around, and this should make for a neater finish. I'll take these to the upholstery guys early in the coming week.
