Update on my '66 Newport

[newport]

Since my last post of insulation in the engine, I have took the block to a machine shop. Have totally rebuilt the front brakes. They were awful, unworking and rusted up. The single reservoir MC had not seen brake fluid in decades and was rusted inside. I will be replacing it with a dual reservoir unit.

This seems to be brake job week. Good job.
