Argghh Brakes

I dismantled and reassembled the left hand caliper. As soon as I'd managed to bleed the system effectively, fluid started pouring out of the outboard bottom piston (again). Worse still, the exact same thing started to happen on the other side, which, as far as I know, wasn't happening before :(

I did manage to adjust the parking brake so that it works well, much to my surprise.

A complete new front brake setup complete with spindles is now on the way from the US.

Not sure what to do with the '67 - I keep stealing parts of it for the '68 but it's a far more original car that hasn't been messed with, but it is a mess inside and under the bonnet (hood).
