After finding an issue with the hold off valve, I changed it out and got all the brakes bled today. Next, I played around with shifters and although the Ram Rod is pretty cool and in great condition (almost NOS appearing), I'd likely tire from it after a weeks use on the street and swap it out for an H pattern. Therefore, I won't be using this shifter and will patch up the hole for use a short throw Super Shifter. Also ran the 383 motor today to get it lubricated before getting it ready to go into the car tomorrow. Gotta keep banging away at it now.

I know...some people think those rubber boots are made of gold.

Finished sealing up the transmission tunnel and waiting for some epoxy to set. Now back to the shop to get this Lakewood bar fitted into the car.

The car is looking good Graeme. I’m looking forward to seeing it at the world of wheels.

Who did the paint work?

Graeme, Looks great! you are making a ton of progress. The 3 point bar is just killer in the car. Did you paint or powder coat it? The color looks spot on to mine.

It's painted Scott. We filled and sanded the pitting using USC Icing filler and primed it one more time before shooting it with a good old spray bomb. It's Tremclad Safety Red out of a can but looks really good.
