Aside from bleeding, I got the brakes and brake lines all wrapped up. Baer Brakes make such a nice set up. These are their 14" 6 piston Street set up at all 4 corners. This is the first build I have used stainless for the lines and fittings. In the past I've used aluminum fittings which can be a little forgiving to help seal. Knowing how hard stainless can be, I bought this slick tool Surseat by Koul tools. It basically hones the seat area of the flare to help create a smooth seal on the fitting. Very slick and easy to use. Got all of the calipers installed and shimmed accordingly. Weren't bad at all to be honest. Also got the steering all wrapped up. 2nd round of powder coating will be done this week. Then I can assemble the wheels, get tires and have a roller.

This was tonight's project... Assembling the front wheels. Powdercoated the inner hoop satin black, center satin Grey and left the outside hoop polished to tie in with all of the factory trim. Tomorrow... The rear wheels. Tires will be here tomorrow. We'll have a rolling chassis this weekend!!! This Notchead tool once again to the rescue. Made polishing these 156 bolts so much easier. No bolts flying out of your hands or burning your fingers! Those who have polished hardware by hand know exactly what I'm talking about!
