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!

The 59 made it's maiden voyage on Sunday. Dead battery in the camera to commemerate!

A lesson to all..................Air Ride + Muscle Bars does not equal tailpipes.

Dropped the 59 off at the exhaust shop today. The ability to have tailpipes looks slim!

I'll am going to try to stop tomorrow at the exhaust shop to snap a pic or two.

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!
