Got all the brake lines finished and now they are ready for fluid and bleeding. Later on that.
Worked on the steering column brackets and got the top bracket and shim done. Now working on the sheetmetal for the firewall where the bottom of the column goes through.
Got my new Window wiper kit from Dennis Carpenter Industries this week. Looks real nice, but may be a little complicated installing. More head scratching.
Meanwhile, Bob Ertzinger and Tony Cetta helped me take the 355 Chevy engine down to Missouri this morning to Cliff Couch. He has been rebuilding motors for more than 50 years. Does a lot for the race crowd around here. He's 71 years old and doesn't look close to that. He will tear down the engine and make sure it will run okay for me. Should get it back in a couple of weeks Tony has a set of Edlebrock valve covers I can buy for it that will dress it up nicely.
Got to order a starter, water pump, alternator and Carb to finish it off.
Soon I have to get started finding a 700R4 transmission. Maybe out of Kansas City. It would be nice to have all this installed by Spring. (Wishful Thinking.)
I keep plugging along like an old mule.
