Thanks for the come back, The car had a 455 olds engine in it frost plugs and rad froze up . Some people just don't care. Rebuilt the rad and going to start engine to see if it's worth keeping then pull it. then the the body gets done. it's been a while since I seen a Master cylinder on the frame or took on this kind of project. I have some pictures of this new edventure and will send them along in the future when I down load. Right now need a front grill. I think this is a great web site. Later Tom.
