Re: Chasing the Local legendary cars.
I managed to rebuild the Carter AFB carb on the 56 today. The secondaries were frozen closed and it took forever to get the thing clean. Started right up but the float level was too high so I turned the idle up to at least hear it for a minute then shut it off a reset the floats lower. Started it back up and it purrs like a kitten. Sounds awsome. The needles have fallen off the gas and temp guages . Headlights don't work but the rest do. Horn doesn't work. Clutch pedal is up almost against the dash. I tried to put it in gear but it grinds. Probably the clutch is frozen to the flywheel. If I get brave I will start it in gear. You can stand outside the car, hit the key and it fires right up....Ahhhh.....Oh yeah, it smokes like Crazy...Gee I wonder why.. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Re: Chasing the Local legendary cars.
Ran the 56 some more today. As it is sitting there warming up a occasional spark shoots out the left tail pipe. I hit the dimmer switch and now the headlights work. Got brave, started it in reverse and the clutch broke free. I then laughed again, put it in first and drove it onto the hoist. Almost drove off the end of the hoist as I forgot I had to stop with the hand brake. Draining the oil overnight..Old old old oil.. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Changed the oil and filter. Added brake fluid to the empty master cylinder, pumped it a few times and I have some brakes. Added some different wheels, drove it over to the Neighbors and Tada......
