Thread: Meller's "Last" Hoorah - '62 Fairlane

Tweet

Thanks Gents - - - - jury's still out but a verdict should be given PDQ !

It's obvious that I probably need to get a life but "for the moment" - - - this is it.
So I will continue to bore Y'all with my Barrio Brothers (henchforth to be known simply as BB) discoveries as I see them. More especially if I find them as funny as my new discovery.

The weather has dried up (meaning little humidity) so I decided to mess with the Fairlane
and clean some stuff up. First on the menu was to remove the manual choke cable since
I now have a nice and fully operational electric choke thanks to many, whose name shall
remain unanimous (lol).

Oop, I digress, I clipped off the cable from the firewall side and then
climbed in the cab and under (well not exact under - - more like lying down in the seat) the
dash and removed the choke handle. I dropped the nut in the floorboard and when I reached
to pick it up, I saw a bolt lying at the foot of the accelerator pedal, so, (like a dumbazz) I picked
it up - - - - only to find out that it was the "only" thing holding the bottom of the pedal to the
floorboard. SEE PIC So I managed to poke it back in the hole so at least the pedal will work for
the moment or maybe forever, if I use the BB theory. "Ai Yi Yi - - we don't need no stinkin' nut
on that bolt"
