Took the gas pedal out and cleaned and painted then re-installed. I find these little things are a bit therapeutic when big stuff slows you down.

A bit of a search to find the correct vacuum tree for the back of the carb. Finding one with the hard line to the brake booster was the tricky part.

Just about everything is ready to go engine wise. I had a bit of a struggle with the vacuum lines and finding the correct switches etc. Everything in place now. I got all of the new fluids last week and ready to install and get things fired up.

Got the steering column installed tonight. First time I have seen this in place as it was out of the car when I bought it.

Did a quick hook up of the battery, just because and lo and behold the footwell lights work! Thats one step in the positive direction.
I tried getting the hurst shifter bolted to the transmission. Previously there was some too small through bolts, so I bought some bigger bolts. Went to install and realized that the linkage on the trans. is threaded. I went through my pile of bolts and could not find one that fit correctly, so its on my to do list for tomorrow.
