Cockpit Rebuild and Rewiring
After an electrical failure I found it impossible to troubleshoot the wiring. Inaccessible, haywired and without matching documentation the only sensible choice was to rip out everything and re-wire with a new harness (Schematic in the file section).
      I took the opportunity to also modify the dash with a nicer instrument layout and in black anodized aluminum. This work was done Jan. 2004.
