Brakes almost done + exhaust part 1

Ran out of time today so everything is still only part way done.
Nevertheless heres what got completed today

Front brake calipers installed



New stainless steel brake lines and the 30 year old rubber ones below



More gratuitous brake shots...



The exhaust was going to be done at a local shop but they decided to give me a bullshit quote so I did it myself with help from KVGTO.

Heres the parts list for the exhaust:
1 x Dynomax 3" X-pipe with built in muffler
2 x Summit Header reducers 3"
1 x 4ft exhaust piping
6 x 45* elbow bends
Total cost: ~$280



Making sure it is centered



Since the fuel lines are conveniently located right where the passenger side pipe should exit, I decided to go NASCAR style and throw em both out the drivers side.



Everything tacked up and the final welds and paint will go on tomorrow.
Sadly this still leaves bleeding the brakes and putting a new windshield in....
