Brief Description: Finalized the front deck and fittings.....
Brakes still on hold despite one or two attempts which lacked the right tools and in one instance showed that I had reconnected the overhead brake lines on wrong, the left to the right and vice versa. I repaired that in a jiffy after consulting the drawing again and a heated discussion. Even with the system sound and connected properly with no leaks we could not effectively bleed the system and decided that some more fluid (which I had to source) and the alternative simpler method of pumping the fluid from one open end right through was the way to go - which delayed the brakes again! I decided to finish the front deck and have it ready to install so I continued riveting all the fittings on, made up and fitted the fwd engine control bracket and it's fittings, had to drill out then re-rivet some dodgy rivets in one or two of the hard to reach edges but an improvisation on the squeezer sorted that out perfectly. with all riveted and in place I started rubbing down and cleaning and prep for primer.
