Thx for the offer, ill snap some pics soon.
Not straight axle, modern upgrade with Heid T subframe.
I can't decide if the center X member is stock or not. The frame is original and has been boxed.
I addressed several oil leaks. The worst was the oil filter itself, barely screwed tight. I may have to change gasket on fuel pump. The rack and pinion had a leaky fitting which took a crows foot and elbow to tighten, I hope that got it.
I pressure washed the undercarriage and shot some rattle can on the more obvious rust, to slow it down. It's clear that whoever last did body work was paid to paint, not to fix rust. This car definitely needs to stay dry.
I thought I had fixed the speedo, but it may need a new cable.
I added a ground from frame to body, but the volts guage still reads low.
I put a new battery in the radio remote, but still nothing.
Still haven't found the transmission dipstick..
Education is expensive. Keep that in mind, and you'll never be terribly upset when a project goes awry.
