Old Toby is out in the world again!

[Aeroman]

Making progress since Toby's engine transplant. Everything engine wise is hooked up. Engine turns freely. Spins with the starter. Spark at the points. No oil pressure. We need to prime the pump. Hopefully get to that when the time allows - probably in two more weeks. Then will have to replace the cracked lower left A-arm. Then will have to replace or repair the pedal assembly because the shaft coming out of the assembly that goes to the clutch linkage is broken off.

Target date is to bring the car to the Georgia Tech car show in March. I think I can do that. Then a trial run to Chattanooga for the Hudson National and then, hopefully to the KFOC National!

The sooner you start soaking your pedal bracket bolts the better. I was liberal with penetrant & a heat wrench while working mine in & out to free them. Still twisted the end of one off in the floorboard.

If you source the pedal arm bumpers that go on the bracket bolts, clue me in after you get yours!

Good luck on March, sure wish I could say that.
