Not my van but!!

just thought would post some pics of what i have been upto today.

so here is whats going down, spent today and some of yesterday sorting Herbies wiring as i was not happy, Made a new front loom incorperating a indicator relay, headlamp relay and Fuel pump relay. I have fitted the electric fuel pump as the manual one was just not strong enough to feed the 2 thirsty 40 idf webbers... the fuel pump relay gives a short burst to prime the circuit and then will not run until engine is running as it needs a signal which it gets from neg side of coil..
Anyway here are the pics.

hopefully a bit more tomorrow.
