Been off work for a few days with a bad back.
Bored sh#tless at home with only the internet and tv to amuse me.
Thought Id update the thread.
Been driving her heaps, the wet weather here preventing me driving her more.
Starting to find some problems.
Starting to fix some of them.
Feel like Ive gone to a stage 2 of this resto now.
It doesnt end with rego :banghead:
Had the front wheels aligned properly and cant believe the difference it made.
Really smooth and easy now. No wandering.
Not hearing any squeaks,creaks,noises from the front end so pretty happy with the way it all came up.
Had the diff rebuilt. It still has a minor whine due to some wear on the pinion and ring I think.
Hardly noticeable and certainly better than the loud grinding noise I had before.
Can live with it.
She`s a bit hard to start when cold. Takes a few minutes sometimes.
The auto choke has been disconnected previously because it is seized.
Im unsure whether I should go for the 600-650 holley that a couple of locals suggested or try fixing up the choke.
Just driving her for the moment. Not in a rush to start removing things.
Is there much involved in the choke for a novice ?
Also got a c4 trans that slips a bit going 2-3 when fully warmed up.
Had it serviced but problem still exist, so looking at a rebuild at some stage I guess.
My 4month back order arrived.
68 coupe NOW with spinners !
