I think it was the Tied House meet that gave me the kick in the pants, but I finally decided to jump in and get started on my car. It's been begging for work for a long time. I'm starting with the rear end sections. Can't wait for it to actually DRIVE! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Here's the list off the top of my head.
1. Pull the motor and fix oil leaks, pull the ceramic lifters, clean everything, install carbs (for now). 2. Fix the hell hole and firewall rust, plus weld all the little holes in the firewall. New battery tray and new rear trunk pivots. 3. Fix the 'access hole' some DAPO cut in the rear trunk. The top starter bolt is not THAT hard to get to. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) 4. Clean and paint the engine bay and rear trunk. 5. Clean and reseal the transmission and replace the speedo angle drive. Here are the pictures from day one. Attached image(s) |

If they have been on the shelf...just give this a try.
It comes from B...so no clue if its true. Stick one in a bucket of fuel...let it sit over night. then let it dry out and try it again. Seems the seals need fuel to stay swollen. Rich |
