Looks like you're well on your way!
You're definitely doing a better job of getting pictures than I did, I wish I had, had a digital camera to document it as I went, even a pic of my finger squirting blood, that'd make EVERYBODY want to try a 5-Speed swap! Hope you get the pedals worked out soon, I still think you need to go with a cable clutch ,as I think the hyd. set up is going to be more troble than it's worth , but if you get it worked out would be good to have that many more used tranny's to chose from Keep up the good work.

Driving the 5-speed
Last Friday, I detoured through Somerset, and got to see and drive Huck's 5-speed conversion. He's done a great job, and the new hardware looks like it was there originally. The car is a lot of fun to drive, and with the different rear end, really scoots.
Felt sort of strange to be driving a manual, after so many years of automatics. Great job, Huck!!
