Desert BRAT Microcamper

I've been having intermittent "driveablity" issues -- ie, the engine dies while driving and won't restart. Went through a series of diagnostics, and decided I needed to replace my ignition coil and fuel pump. It seemed to work, until I got back from out of town a few days ago and the BRAT wouldn't start. No gas going to the carb, but the fuel pump is all but brand new... backtracing the wiring diagram, the pump is connected to a "Fuel Pump Control Unit," which is sorta expensive and hard to find. So I pull it off and take it apart, there are three capacitors that look shot. $0.60 worth of new caps later, It seems to be fixed, though I still can't tell if the FPCU is properly priming the carb yet...if not, I'll just add an override switch for that...

Cut the plywood into 19" lengths 4' long, reinforcing with 2x4 attached with lag bolts. This leaves a few inches gap at the rear of the bed, necessary because I need to be able to reach into the bed to open the tailgate -- the outside handle doesn't currently work, and there are more interesting things to work on than fix that. Remaining to do for the first iteration, I need to upholster the deck panels with an old sheet, and trim the memory foam to fit (bonus, I can use the trimmings for pillows!)

Spent the morning finalizing the design in OpenSCAD (had rebuild it yesterday), and then sourced/bought lumber and hardware. Completed one bench in-the-rough. Tomorrow I'll check the fit and decide if I need to notch out spots for the tie-down points.
