New member Annapolis, Maryland

Post by Kiwiboyd »

A couple of months ago I pick up a 1600 1967 for $800. This poor girl needs some love. There is very little body rust, no frame rust.
I'm going to make her a summer driver, I have had pal tech rebuild the carbs, I have installed pana sport knock offs, added longer wheel stud, a few other mods recommended on the site.
I will try and post pics later

Car #07664

I have the following parts that are no longer needed
Starter
Alternator
Glass fuel filter
Wheels and hub caps
Chrome body stripes
Chrome luggage rack
Soft top clips (behind the seat/door jam)
Gearshift knob
Between seat glove box

Welcome, Pics would be nice.
If you have any questions on getting the carbs set up or anything do a search or ask and someone can almost always find the answer.
First thing is to get it driving before doing anything major.

The engine was rebuilt 8 yrs ago, and the car was laid up for 6 yrs, the carbs were ceased, pal tech in Ohio rebuilt them and set them, they are museum quality.

Very cool, would love to see pics as I haven't seen their work. Where are you on the project? Have you tried starting yet?

Put new wheels studs in today and mounted the Roto wheels.
A little premature, but the old tires won't hold air and I don't want waste $$ on tires for wheels that I'm not keeping.
