Nice! Very nice. Do the BMW wheels bolt right on? I have a 69 Lemans convertible project (a very slow project) Looks great and keep up the good work and keep us posted.

[mueen]

Nice car I like the BMW wheels. It looks like you have all the major mods done. Dont worry about doing anything more for now just drive and enjoy. Look at how many people have cars that they wanted to do more with so they took them apart and now they are sitting in the back of the garage

[Grngoat]

Very nice.

Where did the clutch master cylinder bracket come from?

How do you like the C5 brakes set up? I'm considering it for my 70 Lemans.

[mueen]

They work great with a stock booster, I am going to upgrade to the C6 Z06 brakes over the winter to fill in the wheels.

Any updates?
