Nicely done.
I put an offer on a house. After I move, I'll document what the motor is when I tear it down.I'm interested in knowing if you have a four bolt main and what carburator came stock with your '73.
More than likely they used up whatever supply of leftover large valve heads were on hand before switching to the D3 small valve heads.Hmm. I've seen the small valve '73 heads before, but I read differing things... That it was all 73, or late 73 had small, and that some early '73 had large valves. guess I'll find out when I swap my quench heads on what I had..
My favourite saying is "it is a car, not a couch". I purchased my car to enjoy and I drive it as much as possible. I am very happy you appreciate the story and the work my hubby put in to writing it. I really think the styling of these cars is under appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read the write-upOkay .... I'll admit...when I read "trailer queen" :s I usually don't bother. I USE my cars and I have a huge appreciation for those of us that enjoy feeling the road with technology of the 70's. I dont care much for checkbook restoration folks.
But with 7 pages....I knew it had to be worthy of checking out. WOW..... he MUST have read the "show me the pic's " comments in the Introduction section!!!! and I'm glad MachIMama/hubby DID!! awesome story.
Using the bathtub was my idea. Although, I have had a couple of "remarks" about that from other women. I just thought it was the most efficient. Besides, it was the spare bathroom.Great update and pictures as usual! I never thought about bringing my wheels in to clean them in the tub! Not sure I would get away with that with my wife without minor injuries! Anyway, I'm sure you didn't mind a few sponge baths while your wife cleaned her wheels! They look great!
We are gonna have to get you and your husband signed up I stay confused on who I'm talking to:huh:Using the bathtub was my idea.
