Handbrake Cables and Brake lines

Well its been a wee while between drinks as they say A new job has impacted both fettling and forum time quite a bit, hence no recent updates. I have actually been driving and enjoying the car, and i'm still smiling

Finished off replacing the handbrake cables (from our host) a bit fiddly to fit
and adjust correctly, but at least the handbrake lever is now not pointing to the roof when applied. Also took the time to sand an paint the very scruffy handbrake lever while it was out, the little things like that do smarten up the car.



While i'd had the car up on stands my new "Hel" Braided Brake Lines arrived, not a big job and going by the condition of one of the rear brake lines it was a good job i didn't leave it too long
.






While I'd have to say I did not think there was anything wrong before, the difference was well worth it. The pedal is far more stiffer and has a better feel.

To be continued...
