Re: A '62 has to get back on the road

News from the Shop.
Brake system is finished and bled, now it also brakes at the rear.
Parkbrake cables adjusted, the springs on the cables that sit in the drum were much too long, so the idle travel was too large and therefore had no effect, the cables were also too long, are fairly new and installed by the previous owner, but certainly not for a '62 because the axle comes from a Pontiac...who knows?.
But now everything is correct and bites on the 3rd click, very good.
Carburetor is actuated via a cable throttel and built for a holder is pretty smooth, mounted a trial the new air filter ..... chic.

@62c30 It will have been the original Windshield , the thickness was 5.7mm, the new one is only 5mm.
@all, I wanted to take the old Windshield Seal back, it's in mint condition, will it work?
