Re: Clutch pedal return spring '40 passenger
Thank you. That helps a lot.
I also see that my brake line from master cylinder T fitting to driver side brake T fitting is routed wrong. I have it going over the cross brace and not through.

Re: Car Is Shrinking........
I did the same thing, my shifter was clocked at about 7 O'clock when I got my Roadster. I bent it to 6 O'clock and now it's perfect.
I did it with the shifter still attached and in the car.
