Default Re: Dug out Beater time to work...

Thanks all it feels good to be back on it. I normally would have painted it and then put the drivetrain in, but seeing how I keep sticking it in the corner I figured a fire up and listen would keep my blood pumping to stay on it...
It has a mechanical tach and I would like to find a after market vintage tach drive distributor for it other than the gm unit that I have now, also I think the Packard wires will go they are like new dated 73 (when I think the last time the car was powered) so when I get the ignition figured out Ill get it fired and post a vid.

The Tach that was in the car


On another note I did something I wish I had not... the car is obviously (for those who remember any past posts on it) not a SS or anything of the sort, so the car originally had base emblems and at one time the Camaro emblem holes were even filled and painted over, so I got the bright idea last time I was working on it since it was nothing I might as well make it a little flashy so I ordered a stencil kit emblems and drilled SS holes in the panels and was planing to buy some Nickey emblems for the front fenders from Stefano, now a year and a half later I wish I would have never drilled the car and left it as once was.... so I have mixed feeling as what to do on that now, I probably will just finish it that way I really do not feel like welding all those holes up now...
