I rebled my brakes and now have a decent pedal (those proportioning valves must trap air somehow and seem to be a PITA to bleed).

I had the car running and had the muffler on but after looking at it this last week, I decided that it was too rusty to leave alone. I removed it and sandblasted it outside in the driveway (it was too large for my blast cabinet). This was the last time I will ever sand blast something outside of a cabinet. I'm still trying to get the sand off/out of me.

I sprayed the muffler high temp black and reinstalled it.

After getting the muffler on it, I lowered it to the floor for the first time since February.

Since the car was on the ground, I just had to drive it, so I got the steering wheel installed and drove it up and down my street.

First time it moved under its own power with it's new 3.2 powerplant.

I think it just may be a keeper.

I am finally down to the last thing..... The tripple combo gauge.

Stay tuned for some pics of the completed (or almost completed) project.
