I didn't know ANYTHING about a car that wasn't a Chevy. But I like everything and been on the internet since '98. It's funny how you throw coil cover valve covers and a carb and throw so many off.

Saturday nights back road drag strip, farm to market road, NHRA approved spray paint start/finish line...LOL! High Tech finish, first fender over the line! Most of the time we would have an officer from SAPD (San Antonio Tx. Police Department) or county deputy with us. You mentioned brakes, that's how I earned money in Junior and High school. Drop it off at my house after school or work. I'd tear it down, drop off drums and brake shoes at "Reds" auto parts on my way to school, he would turn the drums, reline the shoes and kits to rebuild master and brake cylinders' then drop them off on my front porch! Can you imagine complete brake overhaul for under $20, that included parts and labor! Will be watching your progress!
