Thank you very much. I haven't done anything else to it since the plug wires. Got a couple of small winter projects to do to it. I need to get it out and enjoy it some more before its too late to this year.

Took a few pictures last night in front of the local Drive-in. Just had their last movies of the season playing for their dusk till dawn Saturday night.

Thank you!

I'm in the process of getting ready to order the parking brake cable stuff to get that working again since I did the rear disc brake conversion almost 2 years ago. Few other small things I'll be working on this winter as well.

Car looks great and sitting in front of the Drive-in. Boy I wish we still had a local Drive-in, I miss those days. Lol


Thank you,
This drive-in within the last two years got a digital projector. They had a kickstarter going for it. Before that they weren't sure if they were going to be able to stay open. Glad they still are. It's a nice drive-in.

So once I got the parking brake cabling I decided to try something. I see the 4th gen consoles in these cars with the parking brake, but haven't seen one with the stock console. Here is what I have done so far as for a mock up. Picked up this Lokar hand brake and got a junk console I could cut up.

For some reason I can't see your pics. I'm doing the 4th gen console and 4th gen rear discs/rotors with complete parking brake cable system. that's a ways away though... :)

Drove thru Dixon on Friday and Saturday. Will have to hook up some weekend and shoot the chit....
