My father got to drive the car today! He said he couldnt try to take the grin off his face. He was amazed with how solid it felt. No vibrations, very responsive the brakes were great, it shifts like a race car idles well and has a wonderful powerband! I wish i were there to enjoy it before it sits in the heated barn with its brothers and sisters for winter.
A really cool Stewart Werner (blue dot) (which is loved by hot rod guys all over the world) oil pressure gauge came with the car works very well and sits at a classic location.
None of the temperature gauges work. My father will have that sent out to be restored in the next few weeks. Any suggestions? (I do not want it repainted)
A few small oil leak's at the moment, most have been taken care of. Im guessing its due to the brand new engine.
The little windscreen that I acquired from Keith Goring works great! Thanks Keith!
Now off to some small details (leather hood straps) (gauges) (filling in the rest of the numbers)
I will post a video of the car as soon as possible and other info i have acquired of the car. Such as past drivers and owners
A thanks to everyone following the thread, this car deserves it and thanks you dearly!
Thanks again!
