Slow but steady progress


Tore apart the motor this weekend and started rebuilding the carbs. I had wanted to switch over to a twin set of Dell Orto FRD units, but based on my research into the Volkswagen world(where both are used on Beetles, etc) I just don't know If I would really gain anything there. Next up are the heads. Looks like a lot of grinding, sanding and polishing are in my future.

Dolly


Well, I finished the chassis dolly yesterday and it may not be all that pretty but it holds the unit body up and has casters for rolling it around the garage. Now we can park the other cars back inside the garage again.
