Hopefully I will not destroy this one. It appears to be the correct dimension, so the steering should be installed fairly easily. I almost wish I hadn't said that.
I spent a few hours today fitting the newly restored master cylinders to the car. The brass brake line manifold I intended to use was not made correctly for the single line system and it was necessary to order another. It should be here by mid week.
Having noticed a few flaws in the paint on the engine compartment, I have decided to repair them and repaint. Black paint enhances imperfections. These minor flaws probably would not matter to most people, and with the engine in place, it would be difficult to see them at all. But things like that seem to push me over the edge. Do it right or don't do it.
Later,
