So, the mini 'preview post I had going was locked out due to age/time inactivity.
*** notice, could use some known good 305 stuff. Preferably 1985****
I REALLY need this old car to see some progress, she's starting to go downhill
Because it was the car I was driving when the wife and I met, and we had so many dates, memories of having the seats all the way flat at nights in the parking lots..... well, it needs saying even as a fbody.
Anyways. Given my current condition, I'm going to try to teach my wife to do some stuff on this one. 69hurstolds had a very inspirational post on carb rebuild on the ccc stuff, but, I think that may be a bit beyond us at this point.
Initial inventory - very old gas, unsafe tires, sloppy front end, massive fuel leakage in carb, then plenty of cosmetic stuff and sorting out how the rings are in the engine itself. Expect slow progress, this one is trying to be done on a shoestring budget
