Sunday January 23, 2005Over this weekend I started remounting the oil filter and ignition parts (distributor restore, coil, wires, etc.). I found that the vacuum advance on the distributor was completely shot. So I mounted what I could and went on to other things. I cut the old muffler pipe bolts off the exhaust manifold and dropped the manifold into the parts washer for latter clean up on a warmer day. I had ordered new windshield glass form Smith's Glass - The glass is laminated and cut from original NAGS patterns. You can choose from tinted, green, gray, bronze or clear. I choose clear. I matched the old glass to the new stuff I received and it was perfect. Robert shipped them in a custom made wood box, very reasonable and half the price of the windshield gasket from Steel Rubber. I keep chipping away at this car.., sometimes it doesn't seem like I do much but each step gets me closer to the first drive. I hope I can keep up my enthusiasm. |
