Still making decent progress here, just not many pictures. Just today I installed a new pinion seal.

Oh yeah, I just might have to do them on a wet wooden bridge since I only have the six ![]() Just the other day I purchased some hubcaps from a good friend in comox bc, I believe they are 67-69 camaro/Nova/Chevelle. They should be arriving in the mail soon.

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
Thanks rusty.
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. |

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
And the top piece here is threaded all the way through and attaches to the pedal and pivots on the rod end

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
While I was doing this I decided to adjust the clutch pedal to a height that I like, it's about inline with the brake pedal (The angle of the picture makes it look out of line). I still need to add a pedal stop pad to prevent the master cylinder from bottoming out and also add a clutch return spring.

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
On Friday I finally got the rear end all finished and buttoned up and I brought it home from the school shop. All it needs is a little paint on the cover and the adjusters to be set correctly

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
And a close up of where I had to redrill the box so that all of the holes lined up with the frame. Now all I need to do is weld the boxed portion of the frame back in place and buy some longer bolts
