Got the carb calibrated the other day at work. Also fixed the horns and horn relay.

I made a good amount of progress today. I got the fenders and bumper off, mainly. It started like this…

First thing is to take off this splasher. There’s about 5 self tappers going in from the bottom with a 7/16” head and also a 1/2” bolt and nut to attach it to the bumper support. Per side. Very fun…

Next, there’s 6 self tappers attaching the fender to the frame. There is also a bolt on the top rear of the fender in the corner of the hood. There are also 3 bolts on the bottom of the fender behind the wheel well, of which only the rear two should be removed. Then the fender will come off.

I decided to pop the brake drums off and check it out. Anything that can’t be fixed with some new parts and TLC?
