Made some progress

Made some progress on my 65' project. Thought I'd share some pics.

The first is after the firewall and fender paint job, installed the brake booster and new master cylinder from cpp, fresh painted blower/heater box.

Second is a close up of the master cylinder/booster install. I got a booster from a mid 80's grand prix, the donor truck booster was too big for my clutch pedal master. The master cylinder is cast iron, for a change in the black color scheme I painted it clear to keep from rusting, but it looks like a glazed donut now (not in this picture)....lol.

Next is the power steering upgrade. Steering box from donor (75') truck and bracket kit from cpp. Worked great, cept they sent me an incorrect (fine thread) bolt that threw me off for a good 1/2 hour.

Next is the front cross member or "saddle" as I like to call it. Painted, and now installed. Looks so much better.

And last is my disc brake spindles from the donor truck, cleaned and painted. Note the tie rod assembly, I do a lot of dirt track racing, and we use inner tie rods with the swaged adjuster tubes and heims on the outside. The spindle is drilled to a through bolt and the heims connect to the spindles. Looks cool I think!
