Re: A '54 named Busty
so the worlds longest front brake job may be coming to an end
I did notice the PO put some random non Camaro front brake hose bracket on (rusty bit in the first pic at 11 o'clock), so I jumped on eBay and found and bought a proper one, we can't have that at Pebble Beach fellas Last edited by Gregski; 10-07-2020 at 08:31 PM. |

Re: A '54 named Busty

Re: A '54 named Busty
so no pics but a quick update, I unbolted the intermediate exhaust pipe and cut it, welded in a 2" extension, and bolted it back up, now the transmission crossmember clears both the master cylinder and the exhaust pipe, win win
I wanted to re weld the transmission cross member but I need more pipe material for an extension now that it's slid over to the left more |
