Ok so some more progress... the master brake cylinder has been installed and modified the brake adjuster. Now hopefully this will fix the problem with the brakes.
Tomorrow I'm reinstalling the carb ( still waiting for the choke. Should be here next week sometime) then tackling the hole in the floor.... sigh still alot to do.
