A Big THANKS to all that followed and gave feedback along the journey.
Already starting to do repairs, power steering has a small leak and my A/C also had a leak. A/C line needed tightening and P/S is yet to be fixed,
on my list of things to do today. Have a great weekend everybody !

A/C leak is proving to be a pain. Looks like I have to discharge the system and replace orings . It was easy when there were no fenders LOL. Thanks again for all the support during this build.

A/C update, appears to be a bad crimp on a 90 degree hose fitting, on the high side. New hose, less than a 1/2 hour run time on the A/C . Never thought it would leak, held vacuum -30 for over 18 hours prior to Freon fill. I guess things happen and its better now then on the road.
