How about SEMA over a couple frosties? I can probably stretch the story to 3 or 4 frosties. :unibrow:

Yesterday Norwood joined some elite company around here in the PT Jackstand Class.

46 years ago these weren't bad brakes.........but they are still exceptional emergency brakes. :)

But these are a little better.........

Today I hope to get all the details figured out and order the parts tonight.

First I'll get backing plates mounted, reinstall the axles, align the calipers with the rotors, check wheel clearance, and finalize e-brake cable lengths so I can order new cables from http://www.controlcables.com/

Then I need to decide how I'll transition and mount the factory brake line on the rear end housing to accept the stainless flex lines. Leaning toward the Wilwood kit 220-7056 http://www.wilwood.com/LineKits/Line...temno=220-7056 I'm thinking I'll just fab and weld a tab on the axle tube to capture the -3 to 3/8-24 IF fitting and be done with it.

After that I'll get the new residual valve installed and work on refinishing the show side of the Wilwood Dynalite calipers.

Sieg,
Norwood is looking good. For some reason I have never looked into your thread , I read the first four pages and am intrigued to keep going but when I saw I had another 180 pages to go I realized I would be here for a few days, I skipped to the end so I could see what I am getting into and tell you I like your story.
Talk again once I catch up!

While your at it, you might as well switch over to Ford ends on that 12 bolt or get Poppa Weld to spring for a 9"
