1966 Valiant Signet Convertible Resto

The bellhousing is en route with a set of offset dowels. I thought the same thing, and if I don`t need them I`ll just send them back. Don`t need to wait any longer than what I already have. I tried installing the master cylinder for the clutch the other day and couldn`t get the mounting bracket to align with the cylinder and the firewall hole. I finally called the tech guys and found out that they sent me the m/c for a B body. It`s always something!

Bummer that sucks :sign6: . Luckily you have the wilwood master to work with. I have a CNC'd one for the early a-body which is slightly different. Hope it works out as well as the Willwood unit.

On the carpet you can try the old heat gun and sandbag trick to get the carpet to mold to the floor and lay down better over the hump. I may have to do the same, my carpet is pretty tight. I think I will do a better job with the floor hump fabrication the 2nd time around. I don't think I really need to cut out as much as the template shows.

Let me know how the rest of your's goes in. :thumbup: Looks like you will be done before me for sure. It might be at least a month before I get my car back. Not holding my breath though. I've done practically all I can do to prepare for the homecoming.
