  5. Brake pedal is going to the floor, seems I've lost brakes :rolleyes: went back and bled them all twice, no air, but not really getting as much fluid on the rear. Brakes worked fine. Master cylinder shit out on me ya reckon? Drove it to the local drag strip. Enjoy some pictures while i bitch about my brakes;) 20210605_164230.jpg 20210605_164245.jpg Screenshot_20210605-224210_Gallery.jpg Screenshot_20210605-224214_Gallery.jpg Screenshot_20210605-224218_Gallery.jpg

    Wow, that interior looks real spiffy. You must be a way cleaner person that me. I’d have that white looking very dirty in no time. The car is looking way cool. Wish I had 1% of your skills. Love the roof by the way.

    For a "back woods" kinda guy (note, cinder block porch steps), you build a hell of a cool car.
    Really nice work Lloyd.:cool::D

    Have you replaced the rubber line on the rear .?
     
  14. Yeah, short of the drums, it's all new.
     
  15. Sometimes you have leftover block, and they serve as steps, or if you have friends over, they serve as lawn furniture. And they're still cheap ;)

    Two years ago I went thru three master cylinders before I got a good one. First was from NAPA, second from O'Reilys and finally one that has lasted (so far) from Autozone. New doesn't mean that much anymore.
     
  17. Yeah that's the truth. Just something else i have to deal with, no big deal. Part of hot rodding i reckon ;)

    Dude, I've seen some pretty tough paint jobs down on Whittier Blvd. in East L.A. didn't look as good as that and there are some pretty cool rides there. Well done! How very well done!!

    Lloyd, you have that old wagon looking Sharp! Those side panels are a perfect place for a shop logo (I'm Sure you can come up with something). Have a Blast at the Reunion, Carp.

    And, yea, those seats your wife did look GREAT! Wish you all were closer to me. I need some interior work done on a few vehicles.
