After 11 hours labor, for 2 nights after hours work, it's fixed.
But haven't driven it to be sure, other than loading on & off trailer.
We have actually had some snow & ice down here, and more coming Friday.
Maybe I can get it out tomorrow for a few. It's straight headers for a couple weeks too. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
We managed to do it without pulling the engine out completely.

YOU, I'm in Ontario Canada. It's nice out today @ +8 deg F. I have 3 feet of snow in the back yard. I'm hoping to get my '69 Nova together and be out for MAY!!!

LOL, ok, you win. I'm whining about not getting out until Sunday. Maybe next weekend depending on the weather.

Update, it's been a while since I have been on. Sadly I traded off the orange car and now have a burgundy 69.
It's fun, has a 468, auto, 12 bolt 373 on a spool. Drives great, but nowhere near the beast the orange one was.
I can put my Daughter in it and drive anywhere, has tunes, AC once I get it working. More drive-able.
Plus PAUL, I finally got to use those awesome tow tabs. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
