Looks pretty clean, CONGRATS. Is in running condition?

Forgot to mention that. It hadn't been run since 2007. My other grandpa had me replace the points, drain tank and add new gas. It fired right up.
Then I took it to my dads shop and had him and my grandpa work on it. They changed oil and such, got all the lights working correctly. Fixed the blinker switch on the steering column. I adjusted and lubed the 3 on the tree so its all smooth. The only thing I'm waiting on now is an idler arm. Grandpa said one good whack with a hammer would bust it. |

Re: Stesch_c10 64 Vincent
At some point my uncle had a student take it to her college automotive glass and they ripped the engine out, found out the original 230 had tiny cracks in the block, So my uncle went to salvage yard and pulled a 71 malibu 250 engine out and stuck it in there. Then after a certain time it threw a rod and he had that fixed.
It seems to run pretty well. |
