Today I drove her around the block a couple times, After 40 years I had forgotten how challenging these things are to drive :),

The battle with the brakes was solved by a new booster from our host.
Now I have to decide how to deal with the leaky steering box. I have used 140wt oil which leaks out over night, I am contemplating one shot or STP. I am just not inclined to tackle a box removal in this 98 degree humid Florida weather,

Thanks for all the insight and advise that I have absorbed from this forum.

Dont have a Guinness handy, but I am sure I can find a Red Stripe beer, or rum and coke around here somewhere to celebrate.

Ya Mon

I'm up in Jacksonville - but my in-laws are in St Pete for a few months in the winter - maybe we'll run into each other one of these days!

I like the idea of the one shot grease.
