Today I changed the timing chain; the old one was actually in decent shape. Changed the valve cover gasket, the valve train all looked O.K. More cleaning, de-rusting, all that nonsense. Behind the battery box the vertical part of the steel is rusted out. I will have that cut out and welded with a new piece, eliminating the opening which in an upper-wiper car doesn’t seem to have much purpose. In the rear of it is where I want to mount the light and horn relays so I’ll need a space to do it. Photos are coming! Soon! When, I don’t know.
