I know Craig, he doesn't live far from me, here in Wauwatosa. My name is Matt.
Thanks for the advise on the hydraulic throwout. I can see were they can be a major headache if they need to be worked on after the engine's in. Because of the Quicktime bellhousing I would need to make up new brackets for a push or pull slave cylinder. I decided on the hydraulic unit just to simplify things-- we'll see if I pay for it later.
The brakes are the original units. They are very "piccolo". I hope to replace them in the future. For now, my family-friendly budget will only allow for the car to get on the road, with some upgrades coming later.
The remote electric water pump and controller are from EWP DAVIES CRAIG, out of Australia.
Here another picture of my project. This car was a complete teardown and acid-dip. The car hasn't been driven for over 30 years.
