More progress. Last night was very frustrating because the simple fact is that I'm not as nimble as I used to be. One nut on the master cylinder was driving me crazy. So I took a break to install the disks. Also ran into some issues there. Front mounted calipers and the caliper bracket hits the sway bar tab. Rear mounted the caliper hits the shock. And the hose routing is a little suspect. I also really need to replace the front shocks. The front suspension wouldn't compress with a jack under it. Anyway, still made progress. I'll put another coat of primer on the engine, and hit it with color in the next couple days. Old master cylinder gone. New spindle. Won't work thatway.

More progress. Brakes are installed. Tonight I'll tighten, torque and bleed them. Lines are run. I need to flush the distribution block with some brake clean and reinstall it. Engine is now orange. Another coat and I'll start installing accessories. Hopefully Friday night it will be ready to drop in. Gas tank is in and needs tightened and rubber hose run, vent lines installed and I need to clean the filler neck real well and reinstall it. It's getting there.

Yep, you'll be wheeling the neighborhood in no time. Amazing how much your car looks like mine all the way down to the rust and crust. Only difference when I got it was the ramcharger scoops were white.
