We put the restored calipers on, plus did the fuel lines, put in the new tank, and started on the brake lines. Ran into a few problems tho….I will get to that in a few minutes:

New tank

The new fuel lines leading up to the sender unit in the tank.

Those same lines running along the passenger side near the rear tire. They then run alongside the car as pictured below

Then we have the rear brake line coming from the rear axle T and then runs alongside the drivers side

It then runs alongside the car up to this point near the front of the car

That line you see comes up to where there seems to some holes to screw in a valve of some sort. I have the proportioning valve that my buddy is holding in the correct place. The two lines come from the master cylinder directly above where the hand is and goes into the valve pictured. But this rear line is not long enough to reach this valve. Gotta figure out what valve this rear line screws into, the line set came with another 9-12″ line that appears to go from this valve into the proportioning valve.

We got the fuel neck in plus the fuel cap

I’ll take a better pic of the cap later when we have some light.

So now it’s on to the guy who will wire the car front to back. After that it goes back to the bodyshop to get a few bubbles that have appeared on the trunklid fixed. After that it goes to get the interior put in and finally off to get the rest of the brake lines installed and get the engine running.

Man this is taking so freakin long.
