Good luck dude.
It's a great feeling when you finally get to fire it up after all the work on it. I'm sure you will get enough wiring sorted to get it running. I'd love to know how it drives.

WooHoo! The mightyboy moved under its own steam last night. I have still yet to bolt the shifter in and tidy up the wiring and coolant hose. The MB went forward and reverse around my backyard.
After achieving my goal of fitting a Matiz 5speed into the mightyboy my advice is not to do it - more trouble than it is worth. It is better than the poxy 2speed auto though. Anyone who has modified their Mightyboy will understand the space issues - everywhere you turn, space is a problem even if it is just routing a cable or hose. Maybe I just should've got a Fiat X1/9!
The trick will be getting it registered.
I think I'll need some new front shox - so I'll have to find a creative way of doing this rather than spend boocoo dollars. Any hints welcome.
I might get motiviated to take some pictures.
