It all sounds like too much hassle for you. Sell it to me for $500 and I'll take the burden upon my shoulders. I'm good at helping out fellow community members that way.:Chin:

mook,ive got all the bits you need....also..the short centre console is mounted by 2 brackets which are both rear console brackets if it was a long one,get my drift?..you a chippy.attach 2 blocks of wood to tunnel via tech screws and then attach console to blocks of wood via wood crews...

the problem with this old skool bleeding is it generally screws the seal on the master cylinder because the car and its master are old..ok with a brand new master cyl...if you have a compressor then go and buy a self bleeder which is a pop to use with one person as wb said which i deleted..sorry james...Originally Posted by wbute
also when bleeding brakes..start at furthest wheel from the master cyl...which is left rear,then right rear,then left front,then right front..easy as..

EVEN THE YOUNG GIRLS LOVE SANDMANS!
When I worked as a mechanic we got caught a couple of times with old dungers where we bleed the brakes for the first time in years only to have the owner ring back a couple of days latter to complain the brake pedal was long or going to the floor. To get round this we use to put a piece of timber between the brake pedal and the fire wall so the pistons in the master cylinder didn't travel the full length of the bore and seals didn't get cut up by the junk that had accumulated over a long period of time. But if you plan to stay in the car scene I'd pay up and get one of the vacumn bleeders that are powered by compressed air as you can bleed the brakes solo. I always find that you end up with a better pedal using a vacumn bleeder than doing it by pumping the old fluid through with the pedal. There a god sent when dealing with cars with hydralic handbrakes!

Oh it is such a burden!
Its stored in a shed behind my dads office and i have already had offers for it. bloody nuts! I don't think that that ill have trouble selling when the time comes.
I changed the oil & Filter which was quite black and smelt burnt. I also had a look at the plugs they too were very black. Cleaned then and put them back in.
Runs very well while idling and starts very easily. I'll need to get out on the road to see how it goes.
So the next thing will to be to bleed the brakes and check the rear brake pads.
Drum brakes have shoes, disc brakes have pads. Just so you sound like an "expert" when you need to buy some.
then you just need to find someone behind a counter that knows what drum brakes are...Drum brakes have shoes, disc brakes have pads. Just so you sound like an "expert" when you need to buy some.
Good point oz
One of the blokes in Repco didn't know what a 253 was the other day... :errf:
Thats a worry!
