'66 Pontiac Resto-Mod Update

[wmhjr]

Well, weather looks good, and while I'd rather be attending RTTH that just wasn't in the cars for this year. Next year there are a few events including RTTH that I plan to attend. So tomorrow we're off to Pittsburgh Raceway Park for Nostalgia day. I've been cleared tech wise for 1/8 mile passes assuming when I show up my description matches what they see. Last night we disconnected the microswitch on the end of my turn signal lever from my high beam relay, and wired in my line lock temporarily. Won't need high beams this weekend, but the line lock will help. I have new levers with switches from Ididit but doing it permanently will require pulling the column and spending more time, so this is just temporary. Permanent plan has high beams operated by the switch on the tilt lever, and line lock via the turn signal lever. I have a secondary option of using a toggle to select the action of the turn signal switch. I could have it default to high beams, except when I want to use the line lock and then make it activate that.

More to come. Planning to trailer to the track tomorrow. First time with the car there, may as well have some insurance in the event that I break something.
