More progress...

Front trunk is complete!  Black VS trunk carpet kit.  I have ordered trunk carpet, interior carpet and a new Stayfast top with bows from VS.  I have been very pleased with their service and products.

I have built my own steering column with steering wheel adapter.   The column tube is from a '67 Bug, the solid steering shaft is from an early VW and the turn signal switch is a '67 VW Bus unit.  My homemade aluminum Nardi hub uses a Grant adapter for the spline.

I probably got a little carried away with the electrical, but I can't help myself.  It's a little hard to tell from the picture but everything is tucked up under the dash and not really visible.  A dedicated, fused circuit for each electrical item.   Relays on the headlights (separate relay and fuse on Hi-beam and Lo-beam), the fog lights, and the horns.  The under dash switches accommodate the hazard lights, interior lights and seat heaters.  I tried to label everything for easier assembly and if troubleshooting is ever required.

Are these large pictures in the post annoying?  Should I just leave them as attachments with a thumbnail at the bottom?
