got the back side of the dash all put together also with my new M&H harness courtesy of mega parts. again, if anyone wants the parts supply of year one with better prices and personable service of Jamie and Roy, I highly recommend buying from them. they always ask how my roadrunner is coming along. can't say enough about them.

also for my dash, I used Jackson speaker service to restore my original speaker. turned out awesome and the price can't be beat. the radio is near perfect I won off of ebay for $10. the variable wiper switch is an NOS one I got off of ebay along with an NOS light switch. never had a lot of luck with useing old switches. everything else is original, cleaned up. very happy with how it turned out.

also forgot to mention, I got my 4973 carb sent out to Scott Smith for a resto. sent out a bunch of stuff to Jules the wiperman also. a few weeks to go before I go to pick up my motor from Jeff Patterson. I want to get the rear end under the car by the weekend. progress is moving slowly but surely.

Do you have contact info for M&H Harness? I'm needing a new harness for my 70 340 Duster rallye dash and seriously do not want to pay $550.00 for one from Year One. Also - was yours complete or did you have to splice in new wires for switches, etc. like Year One says you have to with theirs?

just go to www.megapartsusa.com they dont nessisarily list all of the harnesses on their site, so its almost better to call. my harness was just plug right in and go, no splicing, cutting or crimping. VERY pleased with the fit of it. I looked up what I payed and it was $504 opposed to YO $560. not a huge difference in price, but anything helps and in past experiance, anyway to not deal with YO is a plus for me.
I did get more done this weekend. I got the rear brakes almost all together and I think the moment to roll the rear under the car is almost here

more stuff done this weekend. heres a pic of the fuel tank. this was done a while ago, but never posted a pic. I tried to duplicated the original factory applied undercoating. Im probably going to try and retrofit an in-tank electric pump, but I need to do more research in this.
