Re: Back to the barn with a '38

Got my actuator pieces and about 1/2 of the new parts I ordered. Of course, a few of the pieces are back ordered... until mid to late April. Aaarrgh! So, while I can at least get the master...

Re: Back to the barn with a '38

Somebody put '39 juice brakes on it years ago. I have a master cylinder and pair of wheel cylinders on the bench to replace when it warms up a little(old ones leak a fair bit).
