The switch panel was overkill; my excuse is that it came that way. The lighted and guarded switch is used as a master switch to "arm" the starter, ignition and fuel pump switches. The pushbutton operates the starter solenoid, the first toggle turns on the fuel pump and the second toggle energizes both ignition modules. It turns out, that it was helpful to just run the full pump while setting its speed.

That looks fabulous.
I have been looking at cerakote instead of powder coating as it seems I can achieve this at-home with an airbrush. Still is a oven bake but seems alot easier than powder coating.
