And then....
On my 71 the carb inlet started leaking, stripped out with a self taping inlet from previous owner, so I rebuild the carb with new heli-coil. And then... why not add a new Edelbrock manifold and replace the cut fuel line with a NOS line. Everything is pack together and it starts up and then the ignition switch sticks. So I order new lock and then.... figure I should go ahead and put in new ignition switch. And then... I should change the rag joint since the steering column is out And then.... I should just detail the column since it is out.... And then......someone stop me before I end up with a frame off.
