Well, I got a bit more done today. Finished bending brake lines, and I didn't even forget to put a nut on the line before I flared it! I also installed the master cylinder, both master cylinder hard lines, the front hard lines, and all three rubber lines. I didn't install the clips, because paint was still drying.
My most wonderful and patient wife actually came out and helped me out by cleaning off the pedal assembly, so we got it primed.
I also removed the transmission from the bellhousing in prepartation for rebuilding/repainting it. I have the rebuild kit from Kanter, so I'll be replacing the input and output bearings and seals. Not a full rebuild. I will be inspecting all the gears.
One question- is there any reason to not use gasoline vice kerosene when working on the tranny? I have some old gas (not ancient, just not old enough that I'm going to run it in a vehicle) but don't have any kerosene.
