Re: 1983/5 Datsun 720 build
Didn’t quite get as much as I was hoping done this weekend but progress is progress right, managed to bleed up my brakes, and no issues, just ran a bit of brake cleaner down the lines to clean them out of any potential unwanted contaminants then begin flushing some fresh fluid down them followed by ...
