Jeff,

The truck looks real nice. I'll bet it was a lot of fun to drive for the first time. What do you have planned for a body ? Steve

Jeff,
Don’t you feel better now not having to make motor noises , and knowing there`s life in the old girl.

it wasn't running at peak...but it was fun !
i took the tillotson carb off and put on a zenith and it ran better but still lacking so i pulled the distributor off today and put in a nice clean spare i had around.... suddenly the old girl was purring like a kitten... lots more fun.

gears grinding....oops..... double clutch and don't get in a hurry
