Thanks Ron.
Progress is slowly coming along. Getting somewhat bogged down in some of the minor details, right exhaust hangers, sorting out the electrical. I rebuilt the original carb, but something is not set right. However generally very happy with overall look.

Engine bay

I guess this falls under the catagory of "I'd rather be lucky than good" Trying to track down a electrical problem with the turn signals not working. Pushed in the hazard button, nothing. happened to bump into the wiring harness under the dash near the speedo while the hazard button was depressed and everything started working again. Just a loose connection. I'll take good luck any day of the week.

Little further along

Nice level of detail, but not over restored

Still have the seats out as I am still working out a few adjustments on the carb.

Engine, I have the snorkel for the air cleaner but not sure if I want to put it on. Want original look but I think it came like this.

last one for tonight

Feeling a bit of an idiot at the moment. Could not get a good brake peddle. Bought new master cyl, rebuilt the calipers with new seals and pistons and went for the steel braided brake hoses. Changed from dot 3 to 5, flushed and bled the system still could not get good brakes. After hours of trying to figure it out, I called for help only to find I had the front calipers on the wrong side which meant the bleeder screw was at the low point on the caliper and therefor could not get the air out of the system. Stupid mistake cost plenty of $$$ and hours of head ace . Now to figure out why my clutch peddle goes to the floor. Also just flushed and changed to Dot 5.

DOT 4 is the recommended brake fluid.

Great looking car. If the turn signals don't work, bump the wire bundle by the speedo.
