a) the radio has been wired up (power, four speakers) without any form of soldering or terminals... the wires are just twisted together. It must be earthing off the mounting bolts as the chassis earth lead is swinging in the breeze.
b) the aerial mounted on the car is hooked up... but a second aerial bayonet end is hanging down below the dash. The second aerial has had a hard life... the bayonet end has touched 12V somewhere and has a chunk arc flashed out of it. Need to trace out where this runs to.
c) the glovebox light is disconnected, and hanging in the breeze. It must have arced out at some stage... the plastic bulb holder is part melted. The glovebox switch is missing, but seems to be a standard early Holden door switch. I assume the bulb holder mounts to the glovebox insert, though my insert is a reproduction... no hole. Anyone know where they mount, before I drill a random hole?
d) two thick leads (50 amp type) running from somewhere near the front of the car, under the carpet down the car centre line, and under the cargo floor. The red one has an inline fuseholder near the spare wheel, and then disappears into the drivers rear taillight. The white one disappears in the cargo area. Could have been subwoofer wiring (fully sick cuz) but no evidence of a subwoofer ever being there. Perhaps +12V supply for the trailer plug to run electric trailer brakes.
e) two factory-looking orange and blue wires running from the cargo area and coiled under the rear seat. Sleeping snakes.
f) trailer wires spliced in, then multicore pulled back into spare tyre area and covered in masking tape. Splicing done with what looks like a 240V terminal strip.
g) washer motor was cut off, and new washer motor spliced in using those "crimp the plastic shut and the blade cuts both wires" connectors

Lots of wire tracing and termination in the next few days.
The floor is pretty well ventilated - I need to fit out a heap of grommets. Drains well, but must be interesting driving through puddles.
Cheers,
