Good luck with your Restoration it feels good to see progress. I've done a 69 Chevelle but went the retro mod route. I thought I'll spend around 28k to get everything I need. And I'll do everything myself. I ended up at 42k and that was getting a lot of parts on sale. I've priced out some parts...
I used the crown vic interior brake setup, MC, and booster. I used the bottom right hole on the f100 firewall booster.(because it lined up perfectly with the master cylinder) And made a template with the crown vic fire wall. Will need to move the pedal to the right a little with a homemade...
