Rear Suspension
Cleaning up the front a-arms and working on the door panels
Some update photos. I’m still awaiting wiring harness, so still trying to work around it.
Putting in the glass
The front and rear windscreen are back in and look really good. It changed the whole appearance. Held my breath on the rear but all worked out fine. I put the inner dash and vents back in along with clutch cable and a few odds and ends while I await my wiring harness. I’m also looking for a restorable 206 if anyone has any leads.
Putting the tub back, headliner, and rear window
This week I had 2 main projects and a few piddly ones. I got the front spare tire tub back in which you know you must cut to get it out which requires some fiberglass work when putting it back in. Which now you can never tell it was cut. The other project was the headliner so I can put the rear glass back in. Other than that side lights, finished the dynamat and hydraulics for the most part. No work for 10 days now as I have to go on a family reunion (Wife’s side) cruise to the inland passage in Alaska. Never been.
Brake lines and dynamat
I’m finally back to work on the Dino. My ribs and lung are better and even back on the bike today. A few of these items I did before I left but never posted any pictures. My wiring harness now is SUPPOSEDLY coming in September, no work in Italy the month of August. I have to sort of work around that and doing as much as I can until it arrives. I may have gone overboard with the Dynamat but I figure if it’s good enough for Jim S. it’s good enough for me. The car is now off the rotisserie and on the lift. The hydraulics are done for the most part and the next project is the spare tire tub.
Cleaning the brakes and hydraulics
Seeing how I was working through a brake issue with the first Dino which I solved today, I decided to keep on the same tract and took apart and cleaned the hydraulic parts for this project.
Headlights
More lights
Lots of small projects
I’ve basically just been piddling around the last couple of weeks with small projects. Of course I guess when you get down to it there are about 10,000 10 minute jobs. I love this part, putting clean parts back on the car. Still awaiting the wire harness but there still is a lot to do before I’m stuck. I’m thinking about using dynamat on the floor and back panel. With the 1″ rubber insulation sandwiched between the floor and that will be sandwiched in the firewall, I’m not sure if it would really add anything. After I finish the light I think the next job is the hydraulics. It’s all great fun!
