    I have to give props to Nick (endless expense), he has been working on it for me the last 2 days with out me and finished all the steering work and redid my floor board . :beer: He called me later last night after he took it for a test drive , and gave me a run down of what we need for the brakes and to get the steering 100%.

    No pics except of his helper lieing down on the job
