That was a can of worms. I don't have pictures, but how could we forget this one! We headed out to St Michael to have Jamie help us do the brakes. They have been mushy and not too reliable.
After bleeding the brakes back and forth and back and forth, we discovered that in fact there was not air in the lines... it had to be something else.
So headed to O'Riley to pick up a new silicone seal for the master cylinder... and left with new calipers and a brand new master cylinder. We had our work cut out for us.
Well, it wasn't the calipers, but they needed to be replaced anyway. The ones on were most likely from 1970!
We believe it was the master cylinder. Geez... but bench bleeding a master cylinder is tedious. But now we know how :)
The brakes are much better now. They still could use a bit more tweaking but they are much better than before.
Introducing: 1970 El Camino now with more stopping power!
