67 GTS 4-Speed: Daily Summer Driver

This past week I was able to make some time to get back to the car and get some work done! I got the the rear window trim clips installed and drilled the front for the 68 and up windshield trim clips and got those installed. I was also able to get the console brackets welded in!! pretty happy about that.

As I am writing this I forgot why I removed the coolant from the engine... but just remembered it was because I needed to fix some leaks from the header bolt on the driver side. So I should be able to get that back in as well.

now back to the progress!!

I tried to button up the brakes but ran into an issue... So I got the master cylinder bled and was all set to install it when I noticed that the push rod that connects the pedal to the master cylinder is WAY to long. I got the adjustable one from Mancini and even at the shortest setting it has the brake pedal extended to the point that the pedal is right up underneath the dash... yea thats not going to work... So I either have to get another one or find an original one...

But with all that done one step closer to getting it on the road! The other time was spent on getting the interior trim installed on the charger and working on the packard.
