I've thought about that. There will always be something to do to it. It will be nice to drive it tho.
Got the brakes almost bled. I used my vacumn pump and gravity to get it done. I want someone to pump the pedal and do a final bleed. I had a couple minor leaks and tightened easily since the threads had oil in them. i heard of nite mares of sealing up SS brake lines. So far so good.
NOTE: Don't mix DOT5 with anything other types of brake fluid.
