In addition to the brake master cylinder we need to work out a replacement for the distributor.
I have most of the important parts coming in. I won't know for sure until I have the thing blown apart on my workbench, but I believe all I'm missing is some seals and bearing(s)? Other than those, I think everything else is not necessarily a wear item, and could be restored to a like-new condition. Anything that is a wear item, I'll try and track down replacement part numbers for them. My goal is to end up with what is essentially a new distributor. We'll see how close to that goal I can get.
With a good enough write-up, and links to parts, it shouldn't be too difficult for everyone e;se here that is interested to do the same with their distributors. If it does end up being more difficult than I envision, I suppose I could always offer it as a service to fellow forum members. I guess we will see how it goes.
Anyways, I just finished going through my few boxes of parts. Other than a bunch of brackets, it looks like I've only got the following parts left to deal with: The VAF, the radiator, it's fan and hoses, the power steering pump, the alternator, the starter, the flywheel/pressure plate/clutch, aaaaaand a whole bunch of hoses. There's really not much left for me to do. However, it is a nice big (frustrating) 3d puzzle, as far as routing all these hoses and getting the brackets back on. It's certainly going to be interesting, trying to get the last few bits of this thing together.
Once the distributor and valve cover are back on the engine, hopefully the other pieces fall into place nicely for me. I'm not too sure what to do with the power steering pump, since it only shared a belt drive with the AC compressor, which I've deleted. I think I may well be going with no power steering, but maybe I can find a way to replace the AC compressor with an idler pully, and retain the power assisted steering.
I do need to track down an aftermarket intercooler and some piping, too.
