Hello everyone!
I've owned a 65F for a number of years now and have had the body work and engine/gearbox installation done for me by a family friend with a shop. I have had the car back for a couple years now but she has had to sit while I adjusted to life with a new wife and her teen daughters. I am finally getting to a point of trying to push the project to completion. Unfortunately I had been through a divorce since the car was taken apart and all of my pictures and reference material are gone..along with most of the bolts I had removed when I took things apart. :yuck: . The car is in my garage and all I really have left to do is the interior and wiring (forward of the engine compartment).
My problem is I have no real reference on the best sequence of proceeding from this point. I was thinking if I got the interior installed I would be more likely to tackle the harder part (for me) of finishing the electrical. I apologize if it sounds weak but I was hoping people here could give me piece by piece to complete and help me through the process as not being a car tech it seems a little overwhelming..which is why I likely haven't finished her up yet.
So with that in mind and picturing a fiat with nothing installed in the interior, where should I start? ..and again you are talking to someone who doesn't know if seat belts should be bolted in before carpet shell is installed.
I appreciate and value this forum and any input!
