66 Dart GT HT Whatsitgonnabe?
Today, I plan on getting the calipers installed - with the brake hose bracket in place this time - and maybe bend a brake line or two.
All that's left before I can go for a test drive then is:
- Steering column (it's just laying there on the floor of the car)
- Some kind of roadkill-style gas tank
- Brake piston pushrod
- Bleed the brakes
- Gas pedal and cable (I've got a newer style 'hanging' one that I want to try)
- Maybe a temp gauge?
- Bonus: Kick-down cable (Not likely, don't have much stuff to fab a bracket)
When I was under the car installing the brake distribution block, I noticed it has the driver's side muffler mounted. Seems I only disconnected the other one for some reason. Must have been when I took the pass. side head off for compression measurement. I think I'll remove that. I don't have anything to hold it up so I might as well run open manifolds.
More fun, too. :)
If fortue shines upon me, I could actually run the thing today! More likely tomorrow, though. Or - more likely - in October ...
