Can't figure out why the images won't post????

Just took pictures of my 66 convertible back from the painter. Did the chrome, too. The original color is Ruby red, which we brightened up ever so slightly. It looks stunning!

job is done. We modified a 65 piece. Result is ok.

Nope.

Sorry, I hit send prematurely. The right way to do it is to measure the how much the rod protrudes from the booster and then measure how far in the master cup goes. A perfect match is what is desired.

The issue is if it is not in the right place and you adjust it, you will either get unintended extra pedal travel or cause the master cylinder piston to be slightly engaged while the pedal is at rest. In either case that's not a proper adjustment.

Yes, I am aware of that. I have been cautioned over the years that it is NEVER to be touched under normal circumstances unless components are changed (which in this case a new master cylinder will require it). Everything on my car is still original (from the factory) and has not been apart, as it is...

Thanks. Shop quoted $1200 labor for fronts. Only doing fronts. I've had 20 something of these cars and this is the only one where the brakes work fine, but I don't like where the pedal is (just a tad low-does not hit the floor, but not what i consider normal) so I'm going to do this conversion. Anyw...

Has anyone done the AAJ conversion on a 64-5-6 Imperial? If yes, any glitches? If you gave it to a shop, how much did they charge in labor?
Thanks
