Finally got the tie rods mounted so the car can steer again. Removed the rear seat and the panels on the rear sides. Found out I am missing a fill panel on the passenger side. It actually looks like the car was hit on that side and repaired but not very well. I unhooked the cylinders from the top so I can run them up and down to bleed out the air in the lines. Manually put the top down and you can really see the lines of how the car will look. Made me more excited to get some work done. Still debating on if I want to pull the motor and repair the leaks on the oil pan and transmission pan this fall or not. Running out of time before it goes to storage. Might just tarp it for the winter and not have the new top put on. Need to cut the extension from the master cylinder to the brake pedal because it's not long enough without it but the extension is way to long. Getting close to having brakes again though.
