Kind of a quick mock up of the dash and stuff so I can see what it'll look like.Haven't fitted the seats in yet. Also got speakers too. JL Audio in the front and Kenwood 6x9's for the back factory holes.

Working a little on the car. Got it running over summer. I'm out of town working 3 weeks a month so times hard to make any progress. Just working on tail light/ socket right now as they're rusty, also going to mount rear bumper , then exhaust system.

The fluid color is too light to be gear lube.
It looks like a brake wheel cylinder failed (or brake line leak, or brake line to wheel cylinder fitting is loose, etc.).

Clean/dry the back side of wheel (metal part) with a paper towel.
Place another paper towel on top of the lower half of wheel (below brake drum/above wheel).
Engine off, apply the brake petal.
Go back to the paper towel – I suspect the paper towel will be wet.

The Wheel will need to come off to determine exact point of the leak.
Pinch back one side of the boot to the wheel cylinder, then the other side.
If any fluid runs out after boot is pinched back – then the wheel cylinder is the cause of failure.
If so, I highly recommend replacing both sides (they are fairly cheap).

Just doing a few things today. Waiting for a few friends to come over and thought I’d post something. Trying to make progress as soon I’ll be back at work out of town. Probably throw the interior in this week and seat belts. Sounds good with new exhaust. Flow Pro “ Super V” which is basically FlowMaster Super 40’s. Can’t wait to drive the thing and see what a 3000 stall behaves like. With this thing I’ve got to pass a “Body Integrity”. I’m nervous about it cause I’ve done so much welding, not to worried about the Vehicle safety as pretty much everything is new/replaces. See what the spring brings.

Known about to this car for a while. Decided to have a look at it today and also talked with the owner about it. He’s had the car for years, 360/727. He said I could come back in the spring and then maybe he’ll decide on a price.
