'72 Scamp-not really a "restoration"

Didn't realize it had been this long since I posted up anything on here. I did post up a question on the electrical section about a charging problem I was having. I think I have that problem licked after dropped some cash on a new ignition harness and installing a relay for that circuit. Nothing really to show there but a new pretty harness. I also picked up a prewired headlight add-on harness that uses relays. I am happy to report that mod took only 30 minutes to install, and the car maintains full voltage at idle with nice bright lights.

I also started changing my leafs sourced from a fella on here, just waiting on shackles to show up since the old hardware was totally rotted. All the u bolts had to be replaced...half the nuts took stud with them on the way off, so I had to run out to a local place that works on 18 wheelers to source new ones. They bent new bolts on site and I'm sure they were cheaper than what I'd spend ordering them.

I wish I could be putting the 8 3/4" under it with the new springs, but I don't have all the pieces to put it together right now, and I have to get the car ready in the next week to long term store the car down at my Dad's house. I have an assignment overseas that will keep me gone for 4 years, and I can't really take the car with me unless I pay out the wazoo to have it shipped.

So, the restomod will have to wait for a long time :( I might be able to talk my Dad into a couple things, but that's about it...
