It's been awhile since any updates on the panel. The frail tired engine that was in it barely made it back home from tune up day.

I was in need of the lock assembly which was completely missing. just hanging out was the ignition switch which worked fine, but with a screwdriver. I have the steering lock and new switch , just haven't put it in yet.
