Messed with the p/s pump. Disassembled, primed, painted, reassembled with new o-rings. Still works, I think/hope it doesnt leak. Drove it to the gas station, checked for leaks, none yet.
Installed new jugs from Mike's Montes. Very annoyed all but my antenna nut showed up from GBP. I got the ****ing bezel, woohoo, but no nut. Even though i purchased the nut/bezel combo. I also elected to keep the stock washer cap. New one looks too generic imo. Gotta repaint the letters tho.

You can rebuild those pumps if interested. There is a kit that includes new seals, veins and o-rings - it’s really cheap - $20 IIRC

Started working on the ‘83 Olds column to refurbish it, since Amazon delayed my shipment of V-band clamps until next week.

I’ve gotten to the last couple of pieces, but I’m stuck on how to remove the factory neutral safety collar off of its shaft.

Is there even a way to remove these pieces from each other? Both the lever and the collar look pressed on the shaft and these really need to come apart to take care of corrosion and rust.

Nevermind, another person, a piece of wood and a couple whacks on the shift arm shaft and it came apart!
