'66 Malibu N/SA

What would a race car build be without a few glitches?

This one is pretty trivial. I decided yesterday that it's finally time to install all four Pro-Stars and get rid of the junk tires and wheels the car has been on. But then I found this oddity. This is like "Sesame Street".

"One of these things is different from the rest, one of these things doesn't belong."

I know it's a little blurry but if your eyes are sharp you might notice a 1/2" lug nut among the 7/16" ones. Summit is shipping out a new set.

A bigger issue is the line lock. It seemed like the master cylinder would be way out in the clear, but it turned out to be a lot closer to the inner fender than I thought:

So the next task is to relocate the solenoid to the inside.
