So now that the interior is complete - er.. | do have one more thing to install and that is the shoulder belts, but that can wait till summer.
Time to get the brakes bled.
Since everything is new (master cylinder and new stainless brake lines) I have to bleed the master first.
So. make up some lines to loop back into the master, like so..

Now attach the proper lines and fill with DOT5 and start bleeding the system.
Well no sooner than I get started that I have a major FAIL!....
My line-loc is leaking. So I figure I just need to snug up the fittings......nope, still leaks.
Now I have my clean catch can getting as much of the DOT5 as possible cause this stuff is $$$$.
So I get my eyeballs right up to the unit for a closer look - it's leaking out of the main body near the bottom.
How can that be??? the cannister is a one piece matched unit.
So I get my c-clamp and try to clamp it up to see if it stops leaking.......nope.
Here's a pic of the line-loc with c-clamp on it.

And here - the small horizontal slot just above where the clamp is sitting is where it is leaking from...

So. I'm frustrated and done for the day. Go in the house and order up another line-loc.
