A little fun with black and white editing....gives it that retro look, eh?

Now I know this looks like "Whoopi! New brakes, big deal!". But what a pain in the ass being a 43 year old vehicle. Hydraulic lines cracked, steel brake lines seized up--a total rebuild! If you're going to do it, do it right. Damn!!!

These pics probably don't do justice to the 10 year old plugs that were in this thing. How did it ever start!!!
