Replaced fluid and rear brake cylinders, have not touched the front pads so will try replacing pads. Forecast for rain tomorrow so perfect time to do.

The main squeak is from the rear seat latch.

Have started to replace all rubber with polly

NO!

 

Had a slight problem with the pedal box the bushes collapsing causing the clutch to be permanently depressed so needed to remove the steering column and pedal box so I could replace the bushes and pivot pin, not overly hard just frustrating.
 
Reproduction parts are just unreliable even the likes of Scott Drake ended up having to have the pivoting rod on the clutch pedal fabricated as it was never going to fit out of the box.

As the column was out I replaced all the bushes in the clutch linkages so now changes extremely smooth.

Well at least I am back on the road after a few weeks waiting on parts and finding the time between work to fit them. 

So when is the next cruse!  :burnout:
