cut out the top of the spring pocket on the passanger side, painted it all, and installed the plate, bag, fitting, and line. then i put the upper a arm back on. i also installed some heater hose around it for more protection of the air line, then i started running the air line inside through the side of the fire wall behind the fender, then i installed that fender and painted it green to match the rest of the burb. also had to take the drivers side fender back off so i can start on that side.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 
haha yah me to. thats why i repainted them red again, that and they stand out real nice behind my black wheels. the engine that i am building is the same exact color as the calipers, should stand out real nice in a black engine compartment lol.
