A little of this and a little of that.

Amazingly we still are waiting on rear end parts and the correct brakes disks : (   So Steve and I have been trying to get other things done. We've run the brakes lines as far as we can until we are able to install the brake calipers and disks to get the correct measurement for connecting the lines to the brake caliper. We've begun some of the wiring process also.

 Here is the brake master cylinder. I had some braided wire lines made for looks.

                    Here we're running brake lines up to the front brakes.


     Connection fitting near one of the front wheels. From here we connect
      a brake hose to run out to the brake caliper.

We connected the brake pedal to the master cylinder and Steve
 is seeing how the brake distance is. 


We were installing the starter relay up under the dash area and had a concern that we didn't want the connections to be open in case someone were to reach up under the dash and touch it with a screw driver and short out the electrical system, so we're trying to make a protective cover. This is a spark plug end, but I think it will serve the purpose.

We are installing a key-less start system which also can function for other things as well, such as opening the door from a key fob. It's called 2 Go Keyless. We installed it up under the dash using riv nuts and screws in case we have to remove it at some time in the future.


We installed an inertia switch up under the dash. This switch is in case you were
 to roll the car over, it would cut off  power to the fuel pump thus stopping
all fuel flow to the engine.
