Yea, I’m not sure all the details...I have only seen some small glimpses of when someone has mentioned a no-no.

I’m not one to stir the pot so I will keep my lips zipped! lol

YOU keep your lips zipped?  ;D

Is your testosterone waning?   ;)

Testosterone is an essential element, in correct levels, for women and their well being, right?  8)

Yes this is true but let’s be honest here...you are being a smart butt not informative. Lol


Good attempt on the save.

I haven’t posted in so long! The truck continues to be a work in progress….what’s new, right???

I shipped it from California to Michigan for some very special attention from a mechanical expert …aka My Dad! I’m happy to report there have been many mechanical upgrades and the old girl is running and driving amazing! The work and upgrades are not quite complete but hopefully she will be coming home soon.

Upgrades include

Q-jet
Manifold
Fly wheel
Starter
Harmonic balancer
Gaskets
Plugs
Distributor
 
I’m sure I’m forgetting something


Pictures are not in order…sorry.

Also I forgot to mention that even though I did ship it to Michigan I actually went there for several weeks and helped Dad with all the work….I promise!

Looking good! I never get over how much I like that you can sit inside the engine bay with just a few parts removed.

Right! That is a good tip I learned from my Dad. I haven’t actually tried it for myself but he told me taking the time to remove a few things saves you a lot of frustration and gives you the freedom to move and access things much easier.

This is all it takes…

Does your dad have the manifold spreader tool? He's going to need it...

I think I posted a pic of me using one on the '80 project.
