Tues update

Napa had the brake line adapter for the rear brake hose so that problem is solved.  Also picked up a piece of vacuum line and a fitting to extend the wiper hose.  Gemmens Hardware had the longer SS screws for the gas pedal with the spacer and I picked up a longer SS bolt for the carb base on the corner where the Lokar bracket mounts.  Painted the trans cross member area that my brother reworked as well as the floor cover and the gas pedal spacer.  Tom from Maksim's called to schedule tomorrow evening as the time to finish the brakes.  Pulled the trans case back out of the car and cleaned all the trans parts.  Also matched all the old parts with the replacements to make sure I have everything needed to reassemble the T5.  Tomorrow should be the day for that.

Here's a pic of the engine area showing the radiator installed as well as the fuel lines.

  Still have to install the upper radiator hose but I may wait til the new cooling fan arrives.

Here's before and after pics of the trans crossmember.
