The RF wheel cylinders are mounted upside down. It won't stop for sh*t like that. The forward-most cylinder needs to have the piston facing down.

Even though white is far from my favorite color, that is one nice TD - everything about it looks good, including door fit.

Very well noticed Tom. They have the front brakes twin TRAILING shoes! I am a TC man but assume that it will be very simple to swap that around.
Yes, a lovely car.

Tom, Bob, did you watch with the sound muted. 😄

Willy, you'd like his other vids and tales, he used to race Ford Escorts and do up old cars for customers, Bugattis IIRC and other stuff but stopped when he was 59, a few years ago.
