Ya I have some other maintenance to do first like replacing both rear hubs and bearings. After my new wheels and tires come in, I'll order some vinyl

Let's see.
My big project so far in 2015 was to redo my brakes. I had one "stuck" caliper up front, and one leaky rear caliper. Thus I snagged a used set (Front and Rear) and had the calipers powder coated black. Rebuilt all four corners, and upgraded rotors, pads, lines and fluid. Was definitely one of the more fun jobs I've done on the car.

This just arrived yesterday. Probably the most exciting thing I've purchased for the rust bucket so far.
This is just a mock up, since I don't have Megasquirt yet.

One of the runners.
So excited to finally own one of these ITRB setups!

Nothing big or interesting, just ordered a red Ultralite key from the dude in Finland.
I have a question though, regarding car electronics. Any one kind enough to suggest me a proper thread/section to post it?

Finally finished up my DIY power window and hazard switches. Polished to perfection!! Also got the vent rings! Lots of great inspiration from all the beautiful interiors on this forum.

Finally got a new fuel lid to replace the moss one that came on my car when I bought it. I've always like the type 2 lid since the bolts on it tie in with the stainless Allen bolts I used on my flares.
Hopefully I have another package arriving next week which should be equally shiny

I'm planning on a Jenvey kit here one of these days. As far as the kit goes, is it pretty much everything besides stand alone? Vacuum block and all?
Oh yeah! And the top is sweet too! I recently passed up a BRG top in crisp condition for $900...
Look what the UPS man delivered!

Nice setup! I like those wheels a lot, just wish they had a lower offset option
