My long block is back at the machine shop. I am having a PTV issue, which escapes me. The combination of parts should not have that problem at all. Going over after work Thursday to tear into it and see what is wrong. I am off Friday, if the weather holds - I need to tear into that frame and get it all in primer. I would really start to feel like I am getting somewhere with this car if I could get the front suspension all back together, and install the engine & transmission. (plus it would get a lot of big parts off of the shop floor)

both sides done!

No drive tonight. I had to rush from a 100 miles away to the ER where my son was after he got injuried on a construction site today. He's home now but in pain with a left knee sprained or torn ligaments. Will not know for a few days until the swelling goes down and see if he can walk. He may need a MRI later in the week.

ouch!! glad he is home hope he heals up quickly!

I drove it, I drove it, I drove it tonight. Like a kid in a candy store. Car drove great, but have a lot of issues with the gauge cluster to work out. Just click on the photo

Congrats ray very happy for you!

Where was the smokey burn out? ;)

No smoking burn out on a brand new motor. Need to put some more miles on it. It runs but still need some small adjustments to get it running better.

Very cool Ray. Who rebuilt your QJet? Mine is with Mr. Ruggles right now.

I'm running a temp Qjet, but still need to get my carb redone.
