Sixball  I had a very similar problem to many dang pictures of nothing so what i did was to get me one of those motion sensors with the light in them only i took the light out and used a screw in piece that goes from light bulb end to plug in 110 then i plugged that into the camera.what you do first is to set the whole thing up and a good time to do that would be on a windy day set the sensitivity so it is just beyond coming on then get the wife to walk across the path and see if it comes on if it does not then set it back a tad.I have mine set for people racoons and deer.  vette59jdwl

Two cameras are 1/4 mile from power and two are 1/2 mile. I think I've got it under control now. I got all my pictures back up to mid March and most of the rest are on cameras, sim cards, and my phone. The cool thing about being old is that I've already forgotten the ones that are missing. ::)

About this Pontiac: Don't get discouraged. It's too cool of a car to give up on. Nothing else will get you to those great photo spots with as much class. It's builds like yours that keep my roadster dream alive. I need the incentive.  8)

I'll keep my P.B. but just gonna reduce some pics. I have alot of my trip reports from my off-road stuff which I delete after a few months.

Hoping I can get some time to get this steering box swapped out soon and maybe hit the Pontiac show.

Rattiac  I am actually think of electronic steering for the 32 but have not delved into the works of it enough to make a positive dicision.   vette59jdwl

Yeah let us know how everything fits up.
Spending time with my grandkids gets in the way of finishing my car but I don't regret it!

The fender is off. I did some official "mocking up" .
Had to remove the fuel pump but I think that will work going back on.


I may have to relocate this fender mount tab to bring the box back an inch or so.

Pics.

Started making a mount. Using the bracket that came with plus using 1/4"plate to box the frame.

The bottom of the frame is a bit wider than the top.

Well, darn. I was hoping to get the steering shaft done tonight but.......... Turns out the sleeve I had machined is a bit too big . So back to the machinist.
