I worked on a '73 Vette with a 454 last summer... I rebuilt the R-3310 Holley 750 and fine tuned everything.... I took it for a test drive with owner in the passenger seat. He was very happy with the way it ran... He paid me 200 bucks for about 3 hours worth of work plus for the rebuild kit. Last I heard 2 months ago, it still runs like a raped ape....
I'm working on getting my lazy ass off this chair and hitting the garage for a while. Not as easy as it sounds. Wish me luck.
Be very careful...I really enjoyed working on old cars too...But now I am addicted and I can't stop...Help me..........
man i hear you we are currently working on a 69 camaro ZL-1 clone car complete with the alluminum 427 and a gasser 55 chevy with a blown 392 hemi, i love going to work
.... a lot of us in luck today! I had breakfast with the old car group this morning. One guy's clutch linkage broke in the parking lot, (41 Ford) I towed him to a frineds house with my jalopy and we jacked it up, removed the linkage, welded the broken part, and had him on the road before lunch. PS; One of the bolts for the bellcrank bar is a bitch with the exhaust pipe in the way: Challenges are fun too. I didn't have my camera. .......Dang.
