Got the left side hard line bent up -

I got the axles back from Moser last week. Tonight I got around to installing the 5/8 studs.

Those studs look stout, what wheel nut do you use Jeff?
They are flange nuts (you can see them in the photo) You also use the aluminum spacers shown in the pic. So it goes - wheel, spacer, nut.
Got my new radiator and started mocking it up. My biggest concern was if I was going to have to re-make the cooler lines.

I got lucky this time - all I had to do to make the drivers side line fit was to tweek the bends some.

For the passenger side I had to shorten it -

I cut and re-flared the line. These hydraulic flaring tools are awesome!

Done, next is recovery tank and electric fan.

Looks great Jeff.
Is that a new style flaring tool?

Not sure how new it is Rich, it was my dads and I've had it 10 years now. It's made by Mastercool and it does GM fuel line, and metric bubble flares too.
The rear windows havent been rolled down in years and they were stuck. I like to brag that "everything" works on this car so I got to work fixin it. The cat whiskers are original so I am replacing them along with the roof rail weather strip. All the window needed was lubrication and adjustment, The inner whiskers for the quarter windows are stapled on - no way that's gonna happen so I riveted then on.

The outer whisker was a bitch because the clip holes were in the wrong places and the lip was buggered up, but I got it on. Sorry no pics.
