DRMRMAN 1993 vette update *pics*

Update...

Front brakes ON
Trans back IN (2nd time)
Wheels and tires MOUNTED (not balanced YET)

Waiting on...

Brake lines. Should be here friday...
Balancing wheels/tires. Should be done friday...

The pics on my camera came out like junk. And I have no editing software on this comp. So they are as RAW and crappy as they come!

Later!

JT

Nice!!! When you are all done, make sure you give her a really good/safe rundown, checking and double checking everything. Make sure you get some mileage on her before the Bear Mountain Trip!

Those brakes are awesome!!! How much to change the pads?
