Engine is out, gearbox off and the bell housing is off to have a bit rewelded. Had the beat the starter out of the engine block with a sledge hammer! Had to clean out a mouse nest in the bell housing. The brake drums, shoes and so forth are reassembled. Awaiting a MC and the front hoses and the brakes are done. The rack has to come out as one of the inner pins has some play and the upper control arm bushings are worn on the drivers’ side. While the engine is out I’ll do the timing chain and clutch. New distributor and fuel pump are coming. I wanted a project and I sure got one!
