I changed the brake fluid this morning after breakfast. Got a power brake bleeder for my birthday. Whole job took less than 1/2 hour (wheels already off cause it is on stands for the other work I am doing).
If you were ever considering a power bleeder, I can tell you it is one of the great inexpensive things you can buy for maintaining your shark (and your other cars too, just get another cap that fits your other car).

Spent two hours getting old tint of the rear window of one of my 78's.
Had some help from my son Sean on the two rear quarters.
Secret for the rear window so you do not damage the heating elements is a $30 steam cleaner from Walmart.

Drove mine!
Pulled passenger side door panel to run new speakerwire. I'm leaving the factor harness in place but bypassing it.
Only shattered 3 push connectors. Luckily the basket of ones I bought for my volvo fit pretty well as a replacement.

Jeff, I broke it trying to remove it from above.
Aluminum corrosion had the long stainless barrel bound in there.
I tried twisting and prying the plastic mounting piece.
It snapped.
Should have tried soaking it with penetrating oil for a few days.
MSDS headers prevent removing the bell housing cover.
I couldn't get to the header bolts without removing the cross member.
Love that snow avatar of yours.

Drove it Lowes to pick up some screws for a variable speed band saw project. At least she got out of the garage (first day without too much snow in the street).
However, I did also order a pusher fan from Summit to go along with the soon-to-be-ordered Murf kit, and, yesterday, I adjusted the HVAC mixer flap arm a bit. :-)

Actually, it was said that it adds about 5 km/h or 3 mph in top speed.

Keep in mind the price of gas is so high in other places because their GOVT's tax the CRAP out of it! 3X the cost of the fuel is taxes in some cases! It is like 1/3rd here...
