Nothing better than brand new parts that don't work. I've been having issues with the power steering, or lack thereof. So, I rented a power steering pressure tester and found that there was no pressure comingout of the pump.
Opened up the pump to find that the pressure plunger (?) and spring were installed incorrectly. Put it back together in the correct order and reinstalled everything. Guess what? It works!
Must have been the last part on a Friday or the 1st one on Monday.
Regardless, I learned some more things and more importantly, power steering is working.

Finished up the Nova trunk enclosure. One more off the list.

Trunk enclosure almost complete. A few more support pieces before final assembly and wrapping in vinyl. Having the battery in the trunk made the passenger side a little challenging.
Pretty happy with the look.

Had a great time at the Magic Dragon Street Meet at Bagnell Dam. Tons of nice cars. The little 63 didn't win any awards, but that was not really important. The goal was to get the car to the show and enjoy it, which we definitely did.
Now time to drive it a little to work some minor bugs out, otherwise the car did great.
Thanks all for following along. It definitely gave me encouragement to get it done.

Out in the wild for the 1st time. Weather is perfect at Bagnell Dam for the Magic Dragon Car Show.
