Welcome and read every day and listen. You already have at least one gem of a tip - and that is throw NOTHING away. I have a 29 roadster and when I started fixing the brakes I went through the brake parts list in a catalog and ordered everything. Took out all the old stuff and unfortunately for me they went with a load of scrap metal a couple of days later. When I got around to putting in the new parts was I ever amazed!!!! Yes there were some things that had to be replaced but I bet I put in at least half of the new parts that were no where as good as the ones I threw away. Never to old to learn and unfortunately what I learned too late was "never throw anything away". Enjoy your car. They become like family. Jim
