New parts everywhere...
![]() Brake and clutch master cylinders ![]() Trying to make everything as neat as possible ![]() Steering installed ![]() Later I realized I had a leaking wheel cylinder. I had installed the rebuild seal backwards and had also forgotten to reinstall the piston spring. These things happen when a lot of time goes by on such a project... ![]() New front and rear main seals ![]() Engine and trans reinstall ![]() Lots of help ![]() ![]() Moving under its own power. This was the first time I ever got to drive it. ![]() ![]() Body work begins. I'm sure Braden remembers how many rusted out areas there were in the nose of the hood. I welded in new metal and will finish off with fiberglass reinforced filler. |

wow scott, it just seems so unreal. I guess it was meant to be that I would buy this car and sell it only to give it a second chance @ life. How does she drive? i want to know one thing about the engine, did it have an aftermarket cam in it? It was very very lopey when I had it running. Can you take some pictures of it?

I have only driven it in the yard...no seats in it and I need to set the toe-in better.
The engine seems pretty smooth to me. I did adjust the valves before I ever started it. I'm sure the carbs need to be cleaned and adjusted, but it fires right up. I haven't even checked the timing or cleaned the points. The cam has a stamp on it that makes me believe it is stock. I can't remember the number, but I remember finding the info on the internet as one that was offered. |
