- Aftermarket battery drop box installed with new battery
- Started assembling custom lines for power steering and hydroboost setup.
- Fuel tank filler tube and new rubber seal installed.
- Started preliminary work on the dash and gauges.
- Replaced a short run of brake line that was causing leaks. Hopefully we won't have any more problems.
Front of motor is now done. Also in the upper right you can see one of the completed lines that connects the power steering pump to the Hydroboostunit. The lines were made using Russell SS high pressure braided lines and AN hose fittings.
Starting on dash and gauges.
Showing battery box installed with cover on. This is a custom box to hold the car battery. Normally the battery would sit on top the trunk floor, however that uses up valuable trunk space. We opted for an aftermarket battery box that sits flush with the trunk and doesn't take up any space. This provides a much cleaner battery installation.
