The owner wants to
drive this car. So we are repairing all of the mechanical problems
and replacing the floor boards. The plan is to do the bodywork and paint this
winter. This car took many long hour to straighten out. When it arrived it had
no brakes, would not idle, wiring was in shambles, and the original wood floor
was rotting away.
We rebuilt everything
that had anything to do with the brakes, installed a dual point distributor w/
mechanical advance, upgraded the wiring to us an alternator and work on negative
ground, and finally repaired the floor by installing metal pans underneath the
replacement plywood floors.
Stay tuned for further repairs on this car in the future!!
