It's in! I repaired the harness, and it went in without any fanfare. The front speaker is shot, so I ordered a new one. I wired a temp speaker in the meantime to properly load the radio.  Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk

The new dash speaker is in, as is a NOS lighter housing. The radio and lighter now work as they should.

Today I tackled the nasty steering wheel hub. The old wrinkle paint came off easily with a 180 grit sanding block. I used VHT wrinkle paint, which worked, but I have used better. Anyway, I baked it in the oven for an hour each coat at 200 degrees F. Total of 4 coats. It turned out good.

The original master cylinder finally went bad. Since the original one is very crusty in and out, I opted to locate a reman with the correct bleeders and main body. Through Rock Auto, I was able to purchase the last Cardone 10-1521BLV they had. I bench bled it, and it went on well. It had a spongy pedal, so the bleeders on the master were used to purge all of the air with the use of a Mity-Vac. Now, the pedal is excellent. The booster and proportioning valve bracket will be replaced when I replace the driver's side fender.
  The original master was stamped "CS" with a 2356 date code. I'm assuming that is the 356th day of 1972.  Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk

Well I've secured these nOS GM beauties for the Formula. I didn't have to sell my extra organs to afford them either. Our board sponsor's founder is truly the best.

I think someone got a good car for a fair price. Wasn't around to bid.

When I first looked at it, I thought he had a BIN for $11,999 and someone bought it for that. But he ended it early, so I thought someone purchased it just south of that. I thought the $12K was a good buy. Shipping is what killed it for me.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
