This turned out to be alot of work, as most the parts on it was worn out or defect.New fuel tank and sending unit, as the old tank was rusted on the inside and sending unit defect with an almost non-exsistant filter on it.
New fuel pump and filters. Both fuel filters and engine-mounted fuel pump defect. Membrane was torn and in pieces.
Bad plugwires and faulty distributor. Replaced with new MSD box, new coil and new distributor and wires.
Bad timing chain. Replaced with new timing chain, gears, gasket and chrome lid cover.
Leaking hydraulic hose for steering pump. Replaced.
New electric fuel pump. (Future project)
Defect oil pump. Replaced with new.
Rusted Hooker super comp headers. Replaced with original HP exhaust manifolds and pipe.
New valve covers with pcv and breather.
Tried to fix the six pack setup, bought a new choke and repair kit, but no. Removed Six Pack and manifold cause I could never manage to make it run right, even with repair kit. Replaced it with a new Holley Street dominator manifold and a Holley 870 4bbl carb, plus bought a new baseplate to fit shaker bubble.
New filter and lid for carb.
New starter as the teeth had gone bad.
New alternator. Well, everything else looked new so...
New torque converter as the old one was eaten up by starter gears.
New gasket, filter and chrome pan for transmission.
New gasket and chrome pan for engine.
New heater core as that was leaking.
New master cylinder as the old one was leaking.
New brake booster and pedal linkage, as it did not have that.
New Wilwood bolt-on front discbrake conversion kit. (I still have drums, but I don't trust them. Future project.)
New window wiper switch, linkage-arm and crank as the old one was for a 2 speed motor and didn't work as it has 3 speed motor on it.
New Rallye speedometer as the old one was a standard speedometer and had at one point probably had woodgrain glued to it and then removed.
New seatbelts front and back. Did not have that installed at all.
Used right side tail light plastic as that was broken.
New door sills.
Several new steering wheels.
New steering linkage between front wheels. The old was worn out.
New front floor pan, driver and passenger side. Rust. (Future project)
New rear quarter panel, driver side. Rust. (Future project)
New trunk panel, driver side. Rust. (Future project)
New windshield seal and moulding, both doors. Was missing.
Used quarter window, passenger side. Had stripes.
Had to do some work on the grille as that had cracks everywhere. Some polyester and fiber and a paintjob and it's looking good.
It's alive now, and engine now runs properly with the new 4 bbl carb. It's not as cool, but it runs right.
Bought it august 2010, and hasn't really functioned properly till now.
The six-pack choke really needs a do-over. Would have loved to see an electrical solution for that. Gonna try to make the six-pack work one day.
