Got the pedal house and parking brake release cleaned up and rebuilt. New bushings, pedal pads, and switches.

The column came in today, bolted it up to get measurements for the steering wheel and adapter.

Mocked up the Speedtech Performance/ATS clutch master cylinder setup.

Knocked out cleaning up the drivers side of the firewall. Followed by some rattle can resto

Turned the Holley accessory brackets black. I have a black alternator and plan to use a black a/c compressor.

Cool things you find when pulling old cars apart. This was on the back side of the dash panel.

Installed factory replacement brake lines over the weekend and started making close out panels for holes that are no longer going to be used.

Today I started figuring out how to get the brake lines connected to the master cylinder. Which included bending and flaring some new lines. Waiting on a couple fittings before tackling the rear brake connection. Small steps forward

Started test fitting the Vintage Air unit today. This car is being built as a driver (Power Tour, etc) so A/C wasn't an option.

More mock up of the Vintage Air. Installed a stop for the clutch pedal.

Got the steering column hub adapter in, had to see the Momo on the car. Seems to work well.

My DSE bling for this week

Did the "Stielow" (LT5)

plate mechanism. It's from a '90's Caprice. Basically it allows the plate to flip down and stay down while refueling.

It's a new GM part (14083879). I ordered it through Tasca Parts.

Great updates and that is the steering wheel that I want for my car.
