made a special tool to make a bulb in the waterpipe. (we removed the sensor in the waterpipe, there is a sensor in the engine and we can use the pinout on the ECU for wiring ir up).
the red rooster
interior: airflaps/heater/anti-vibration/wipermotor, etc.
dashboard after 3 evenings

You know, now that I look at this, I think the color is off a bit. I think you should consider starting over.
Ok, that's just cruel..... Love the dash, those gauges look great!

Thank you for all your kind words and cruel suggestions 
I sleep, most 10 hours a day...
But when you are unemployed you can lay the whole day with your ass in the sun or work your ass off in your garage to get your car in time to Norway.....
I like my red color, it is just the color I had in mind (very important for me) it will be nice with the chrome and camel color interior.
not much to update: still sticking anti-vibration mats in the car

Had a very nice weather today, so I worked outside and getting a tan 
before the anti vibration mats
mats in place
work in progress
rear is done
front done
I don't do the floor. Because if the floor get's wet I can take out the chairs and carpet and just make it dry. I am a bit scared there could be water under the mats and that you can't see if it is going to rust there (for what reason).
wiring in front, plugs for the foglights, hoodhinges in place
rear reflectors, bumpers, lights and license plate lights in place
STRANGE ISSUE left side top light touches reflector (maybe because of different fender....)

Erica is it possible to bring the two left lights a little lower by milling.
It looks me that the distance between the fender to the lower light at the left side is larger then at the right side.

I think this car is beautiful. You need amber indicator just to complete the rear end. That's just my opinion.
