A Frame Off Restoration

Dec 2011

Engine Fall

Dropped Engine
It’s to be expected. Accidents will happen on any big (first time) project. We built what seemed a very sturdy engine stand. It rolled on three wheel dollies. While pushing the engine back to its storage place a wheel hit a small screw which stopped the dolly but not the engine! A new crankshaft pulley is on order!

Phase II - Restore

We will use this Blog to document our adventure through the process of the three R's, Repair, Restore, or Replace the parts.
Feel free to add your
comments, advise, or encouragements as we progress through the steps to a full restoration.
