Big step today, the temperature was decent today so I finished the prepping on the firewall and got it completely sprayed. It turned out really nice, almost flawless, tons of work is finally starting to pay off!

I also did some work at the metal shop in my school, I turned this piece of aluminum on the lathe and polished it up and it looks almost like Chrome! It's going to be part of the missing bracket that allows me to mount my unity spotlight to the window pillar

Morning Mate
Been keeping an eye on you. Great progress as always. Also with being back at work and writing up my USA Road Trip report the last few weeks, I just did not reply to many threads.

Made some more progress on the rear end today, I rebuilt the rear brakes with new shoes, wheel cylinders and springs, since I used the 78 backing plates and brakes I ordered the wider 2 3/4" shoes, so now its upgraded a bit better than stock

Today at school I used the metal lathe to make some pieces for my hydraulic clutch linkage. I turned down some roundstock and used my tap and die set to thread them. The threaded hole on this piece attaches to the clutch master cylinder and the threaded stick-out part threads into the rod end. The lock nut is to make adjustments and tighten it so it won't come out of adjustment Last edited by 62stepside longbox; 11-29-2016 at 08:40 PM. |

And the top piece here is threaded all the way through and attaches to the pedal and pivots on the rod end
