One Step closer to a possible test fire

I finally got my drive shaft and it fit!!!! All I have to do is bleed the brakes put gas in the tank and fire it up, will still need side glass, interior and bed wood but that is not going to stop me from at least a cruise around the hood. I bought the one person bleeder valves to make it easier, for a one man operation, anyone have any other tips on brake bleeding?

I had the Tips, and mufflers, nothing else. It cost me $260 I think for Big Jims Exhaust in Phx (off of Bell Rd behind Midway Chevrolet)to do the job it's a very nice installation clean welds, perfect for what I want.
