Phil,
I have had it that way for so long, I can't really remember.
I really think it was routed behind the throttle bracket originally.

Put the A/C evaporator, fan box and under dash box back in.
I am a little behind you on my '66 resto and was wondering how you handled your A/C. I assume you are going back all stock? Did you do any conversions? Can't decide how to approach mine...I like the looks of the Sanden compressor but want to keep the rest stock.

Also, do you have any shots of under the dash? Would like to see how/where the harnesses are attached to the dash or firewall.

I am going stock with my A/C. And, I can't help you with the harnesses because I haven't installed them yet.
When I do, I will take pictures.

Just a quick note to say I will be out of town from Thursday until Monday night. So, dbiggs, Eric and all of you that are working on their cars, put down your wrenches.
I did get the brake lines hooked up and used a vacuum pump to bleed the lines. I still need to bleed the rears some more but ran out of time. Had to start packing. We are going to"Kaintukee" to see my two brothers.
Y'all be good!

I did some work on the car today and was able to move it out of the shop under it's own power. I still have a long way to go but, one day, I will get there.

You'll be passing me soon enough. At least as far as the restoration goes!

Not worried Cause I have a set of rallye wheels and a 60/40 seat from an 87 El Camino and super high speed bungee straps holding the battery tray up.
I'll run you right now and give you 10 car lengths. Let me put the front end back on mine and I'll spot you twelve and give you an extra man to push yours!

I just realized how unfair this race would be! I plum forgot I am running pure South Georgia well water in my cooling system! So the only humane thing to do is call off the race. No hard feelings, I hope.

I worked on the car about 4 hrs last week. Got the brake lines finished and bled the brakes. I will have to re-bleed them when i get more time as there was a small leak in one of the rear lines.
I have to move the car into my garage to free up space in my shop for a woodworking job. I have to build four 8'and four 4' columns for a friend. I can't charge him labor because he is a florist and covers me at every special occasion(read that flowers for the wife)even if I forget.
Anyway, I spent $75.49 on parts and supplies so here are this weeks totals.

My labor at 330 hrs........$6,600.00
Parts...........................$8,203.61
Outside labor................$3,425.00
Gifts..............................$716.52

Total.........................$18,945.13

It only took me 20 years to figure that out.

Good news/ Bad news. Good: I got a 35 hr work week in. Bad: With it being Mother's Day and working all week, I didn't get anything done to the GTO.
I did go through the PY catalog and get up a wish list. If I get another week's work, I will place an order.
Totals remain the same as last week. I hope to add to them by next Sunday.

Aren't Pontiac Supplier wishlists great? I love making them, but I don't like paying for them.
