Well after all these months I have steering!!!! Smooth as butter and looks great too.
I now have brakes too! Fought a couple leaks with the connections around the master cylinder. Loosening the lines and retightening them did the trick. I vaccuum blead them last night. The old lady let me borrow her leg. Brakes feel great, no leaks, really like the feel of them so far. DSE dash is fully bolted in along with the column, steering wheel, brake switch, drivers seat is in. When it's done I'll post all the photos.
Made a homemade bench bleeder.
It's on the road this week! Have a couple of trick parts here and on the way to dress her up a little. haha
