After working on my truck for nearly a year, I got to start the 235 in
my
ole truck for the first time Saturday. It had been totally rebuilt and ran for
4
months by the PO,, but then had set for nearly two years before I got to start
it. This may not sound like much of an accomplishment - but I had never
rebuilt a carburator (and numerous other external items that I could have
messed up or went wrong during that time),, and any actual consideration of
my truck being on the road this mellinia hinged highly on this past weekend.
So,, I now have new inspiration to buckle down and get "Cochese" back
together again. This is truly a great hobby - and even though I've went over-
budget, and behind schedule, (not to mentionnd missing a few layers of
skin)... I really enjoy my old truck.
Hopefully to have the homepage updated soon.
