Well, I dropped the brake calipers off at the parts shop by me so they can match up my brake calipers off the front of the Chevelle today. Since they were added to the car by someone probably in the 70's and the parts numbers dont match up to anything, so I started cleaning up the 4speed a little bit. I ran out of biscuit cutters so I had to stop early, but heres a before and an after that you can kinda see its cleaned up and smoothed out some.

Its obviously still not finished, but hopefully tomorrow I can pick up a few more biscuits and finish it up, and hit it with some paint.

Had an idea for the shifter handle to lay some orange paint in the etched "Hurst" lettering, so I did that today also. Its a Competition Plus from Hurst.

Still have to put a few more coats of the orange in there, its slowly but surely building up and becoming more noticeable.
