I had my fun!
2000 miles give or take.
Right side hood latch would come loose now and then on the way back.
Pulled off here at the Lewistown Narrows to relatch it - 8:05 PM according to my photo.

Sorry it didn't work out. Maybe I'll catch ya at Carlisle
 
Gittin after it today... Pulled the BS Accel coil and some wiring, and the hinges. Had to cut a slot in the top of one of the battery tray bolts to use an impact on it. It was so rusty and tight, but it came apart. Believe it or not, was able to undo all of the lines from the proportioning valve. Pulled the cap off of what I think is the original master cylinder. Actually looks pretty good inside. Pretty sure I can rebuild it and keep the original. Cars like a time capsule.

Well dang Mike!

Tom needs i be carrying the water.

Hope the recovery is quick
 
Messed with the master cylinder for a bit... I don't like it and it's the GM style that came with the disc conversion ( dual pot, both the same size with side mount proportioning valve) Only has 2 mounting holes

Decided to order a Bendix disc/drum master from Pirate jack.

MP-110 - 1962-74 Mopar A, B & E Body Standard Manual Master Cylinder Kit

Hacked up the upper radiator hose. It fits, but I'm not in love with it. It'll work for now and an easy switch later.

Had some good karma hit. Missing one of the nuts off the coil... been to the store 3 times and can't find the right size one for nothing. Dropped one of the nuts and lock washer... mumbling under my breath, crawl under the car to retrieve the wayward nut.... Surprised to see it laying right.next to another nut... Yeah, the missing one from the coil.

:thumbsup:
 
Home from the show. Still not unpacked but I'll get to it.

Well, now trying to figure out the accelerator pedal and cable. The one in here is a 1976 style with a bunch of backyard engineering... the cable was held in the slot by electrical tape... and there was a lug nut behind one mounting bolt as a spacer....

This is gonna take a bit to unravel
