Who was it who had gotten a rusty Valiant ? Look at this:
It is beyond rusty. If this can be restored, any Valiant can be restored too.

Still here. Back pain keeping me awake, beer hasn’t dulled it much.
And im starting to dim.
Long day, spent a better part of it outside,between collecting and moving batteries and putting wheels on fargo
Had to wear my coveralls a warm jacket and toque. And mowed grass for a couple hours.
Finally!

Spent all day dodging my painting contractor and his noisy pressure washer. Did go to Charlie's in the neighboring village.
The burgers are delicious. I may not eat again until NFC North Sunday on Fox

Beer didn’t work to subdue this back pain so I think I will eat a belly full of pasta and try to put myself into a carb coma to try to get some sleep tonight.
I’m exhausted. I have had only 4 hours sleep in the past 36 hrs.
It won’t wreck my diet either...the pain has made me so nauseous that I haven eaten much in 24 hours.

Now there's an interesting pain aid idea. Hope that back gets in alignment for ya Dd. On one hand I'm glad my back issues delayed arrival until I retired. On the other I'm disappointed they arrived at all.
Push it down with a Porto-Power using a chain as as an A Frame attached to each end of the engine and the large foot on the base of the porto power so that it sits and pushes square.
Or build a jig to hold the porto-power like in this 10 minute video (a little drawn out but good info) then you can hit the jig with a hammer when you get good pressure on it with the porto-power.
Just got finnished changing an air starter out on a Cat c32. The back cover split and blew off it. 180psi.
Take care of yourself Dave...
If you were closer, I would give you some of my muscle relaxers....
Got one of these to hang upside down for a bit and stretch it out a few times ?? Temporary relief from the squished out vertebra pushing on the nerves.
My experience with back issues is that the back and leg muscles tighten up so much that they pull down hard on your spine, pinching the nerves in the spine at the points where they are close enough to start squeezing on the nerves.
Found this out from sitting in a chair for 10 hours a day doing computer service work, dang muscles shorten up (causing back troubles) when they are not getting stretched out, like they do when you are out walking around all day.
Got out of that career and sitting in that chair, out and about doing stand up things in the shop now. Back has been back to good again now for many years.
Good luck
Hate to say it but, 1 shot of whiskey for a muscle relaxer might help the tight muscles let go to at least let you get to sleep.
Maybe some emu oil too.
How well does that hang upside down thing work??? Is it worth the money... I've seen them advertised, but not sure if they help....
Jacuzzi or heating pad may also help Dave...
I would be afraid that I would get stuck upside down on that thing...
Also, I make it a rule not to let my @ss go above my head.... JIC....
