I am not sure about the clutch - feels a little strange...We will see!
Oh, and here are some pics of the rest:
Raid steering wheel; Speedometer; padded dash and seats installed, all switches wired, the body is polished and waxed and stainless steel trim is installed.

finally, an update!
After I received all the cooling tins for the engine, I could continue to assemble it:

assembly of the geberator tins and fan:
the engine so far: intake manifold, generator, coil and header + heat exchangers installed
of course, I installed a brand new clutch
