The car runs and drives. Stops with the E brake. All 4 wheel cylinders, all 4 rubber brake lines, and a few metal lines have been replaced. I need to bleed the brakes, but I think first a few more metal lines need replaced. Here's a few pics I took today right after I drove it around the neighborhood.
