Not much to show today. Spent the day working on the remote power steering resevoir and start to tidy up wiring. I should have some small fittings and the proper molded hose for the power steering. After that, I can get the accessory drive operational, bleed the brakes, and fit the acellerator.







Gotta figure out how I can / want to mount the ECM



Getting further, not so much wiring laying around





Go Pack Go!

While the roads were still clean, I spent some time working out some bugs. Not much for pics until I reall dive back into the car just to tidy up some loose ends. I still have to plumb the A/C, install the stereo, and get it aligned.

What I did do, is promise my buddy Hunter a ride in &quot;his&quot; car.







And just a couple of pics as it sits. Need to rework the tailpipes to hide them.

The fellow I bought the car from sent me some pics of the car in it's &quot;virgin&quot; condition. I kinda like the car before anything was touched!

While this has nothing to do with my 59, here is a Biscayne from the same fellow I purchased a couple of cars from. If I were not DEEP in cars, I'd be posting this in the members section rather than offering it for discussion. IMO, WOW!
