Big plans

Post by ratfink »

This weekend I am going to try and finish my project.
I have been stuck for awhile w/ a broken exhaust bolt,(#4 against the firewall). I have new heater hoses, intake, carb, valve covers, and exhaust manifolds. Wish me luck. (notice my signature)

Well, I finally got the broken bolt out. Decided to clean up all of the exhaust threads and I just broke off the tap. What a great saturday this has been.
