- In Episode 122, we reinstall a Classic Performance Products disc brake conversion kit, including new master cylinder, routing new brake lines, replacing all of the cables on the emergency brake system, and everything else that goes into making sure our tri-five stops when we press the WHOA! pedal!

Genuinely laughed out loud when you made reference to the video about the service manuals 😂. None of your videos are boring or bad! They are all great. Loved the trick about the p-brake cable. I usually just get frustrated and break the ears off. Christine just looks more and more amazing with each video. Fantastic job Bill! Your doing it. You'll get her done in time.
Great job Bill,she will be beautiful and driving soon
By the way love the longer videos too
Great E-Break trick!
Good progress
Good job mint 🎉
You must not be a power brake fan, unless your engine doesnt produce enough vacuum? You should have awesome brakes. Thanks for sharing!
Very interesting that your video on this stuff came up when it did. I just finished removing the power brakes on my brothers 48 Chevy coupe and went with manual brakes. I used a master cylinder from a 71 halfton Chevy pickup with the disk front/drum rear. I used those on my 39chevy and my 55 so I know they work. Also glad you showed how the emergency brake cables go since I kinda forgot how they go. I really need to install them back in the 55. Keep up the good work 👏
I just got all my brakes finished too! New lines, solid and flex, disc on front, drum on rear, like you. I used a 69 Camaro master cylinder, new, because it is designed for disc/drum also. Got a buddy runs his with no proportioning valve, and stops great. I may have to add one, don't know yet. Good video. Nice length too! Only took a couple adult beverages. My Sunday night matinee. ;)
What ... no power brakes ... a box end wrench works too for compressing those cable flare tips ... gettin closer ...
you should have bench blead the master cylinder
Hey buddy I used dot 5 brake fluid it’s a silicone based fluid it’s designed for cars that sit a lot won’t hurt your paint if spilled on it it’s dot 5 not dot 5,5 ok if u decide to use it and it won’t draw moisture either
