Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy

Got my brake lines hooked up and the Dakota digital dash mounted. Still need to bleed brakes and finish wiring the dash up.

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy

Finished up the brake system. Put new calipers and disc up front. Now it has a complete new brake system from power booster, master cylinder, brake shoes and new calipers.
