got the car home yesterday. saturday was a waste of time. the winch was worthless with flat tires and i could afford and more for a winch. so i had to get used tires put on the rims, with didn't bead right, but would hold air long enough to move the car onto my friends flat bed car hauler instead of my trailer. we go it home just fine and it came of with just two of use pushing and went right into the garage.

she is all original, except the front seat bottom cloth was redone in the wrong material. the block has the correct number on it, but he thinks the trans. is different.

found out the drive shaft was disconnected, which was good. it even had a polyglass tire on a rim in the trunk

me and my wife are excited!!


the motor had full oil and it was golden and didn't seem to have any water in it. the breather assemble still had a filter in it with an oil bath filled. the spark plugs were loose in their sockets already, which was smart on the previous owners part. keep the water out, but they didn't freeze either. the motor turns over by pushing on the fan. i just gotta figure out why the trans. wont move into different grears. the lever is stuck on the steering column.

anyways...i hope everyone enjoyed my little adventure. i think the only one that didn't was my muscles.
