Ball of Yarn

This is the heap of wires that Jeff took out of the Land Rover, years of splicing and dicing and taping. He just decided that it was better to wack off the whole thing and start over. It kind of reminds me of Christmas lights if they've just been thrown into a box and then you get them out the next year and they are a tangled mess.






This is behind the gauge panel, again you notice lots of tape, Jeff found a pen back in there and of course everythings covered in dirt. Ofcourse the dirt part is to be expected when living in the desert.









But you can see here that Jeff is making good progress, he's modified few a things. But now you can at least tell where the wire is going and where it is getting power and if you know Jeff, he'll have the whole thing labeled for later as well.









This is part of the circuitry I think, and then there is a panel on the inside of the Landy for the circuit breaker. I think if we ever sell this thing and the next person looks inside, they'll think it's from another planet.
Jeff is nearly finished, he says he just has few more adjustments and then he'll tidy up all the wires and put the thing back together. It's been a challenge for him but kind of fun as well. It's only that there is so much pressure when it's your only vehicle and I think that presses him to try and get it done faster and as you know, things don't always go fast in this part of the world.







Love,
Michele for us three

Ditto--impressive. I was feeling good about wiring in a trailer brake....
