Project SportsRoof is Back on the Street Part II

So what kept my ’73 Mustang from running free around Southern Arizona?

Well, a lot of things, but where to start?

You’ll recall there was that pesky head gasket leak with water bubbling between the block and the left side head.

 

Then here was this:

The transmission leaked around the kick down lever I installed.

The gas tank needed to be dumped and accelerate pump replaced.

Started and coil decided to passed on to the great scrap metal pile in the sky.

Oh and there was that lifter noise. Check out the video:


After the a new camshaft install, new push rods, new spark plugs she runs like new—-ish!!

Thanks for stopping by.

    I use Stabil 360 (not the regular Stabil) at every fill up. Only need 4-5 ounces per fill up. Stabil 360 addresses the ethanol varnish and corrosion issues. It keeps fuel fresh for “360 days”.
    Bring that beast by the house this weekend; I’ll keep a mask on and social distance.

Let me hear from you!!! Drop a note!!
