I sent a PM.

They will cost $35.00 U.S each, plus shipping. I can not guarantee how long these will last before yellowing or if they will even yellow. If you want a perfect reproduction, don’t order one. There are small imperfections. I only have a limited quantity and I’m not planning to go into business...

Production is underway! Here's the original and the first casting! I finally got the bugs worked out and I'm now in the process of making them. I mailed the first one out today to Living in the Past since it was his original I made the mold from. These casting are not perfect but look really...

Just completed my restoration with a Chevy sbc V8 5.7l. had my first good test drive Wednesday with no overheating issues. I went with a new four core radiator and mechanical clutch fan. Used the 3 speed and transfer case.

Good to know! Thanks

Hey thanks for the info! Maybe there is light at the end of the tunnel after all!

I did find the lock nut was loose on the pedal rod to booster and tighten it back up today with no change. I agree with everyone the shoes need to be adjusted. Will try that tomorrow. Thanks!

Tomorrow I will try bleeding the brakes again after I max out the shoes. Then I won’t back them off as much as they are now! Good idea thanks.

Darn, I forgot to to max out the shoes!!! Did that yesterday but forgot today! Thanks.

Status update: started from scratch. Pulled MC to verify pushrod to MC was correct, it was. Bench bled the MC. Purchased a Mityvac and proceeded to bleed all wheels using Mityvac’s recommendation of starting closet wheel to MC first to furthest. Had really good pedal pressure though I still...

Good point thanks!

Okay bleeding the MC is next. Then I will bleed the system again. Better safe then sorry.
