Re: New 70 owner in KCMO

Thanks! As soon as I really get started on it I will start a project thread, but so far I've only had time to rebuild the carb and set the timing to get it running a little better for the time being. I have a rental house I'm remodeling and as soon as thats done its game on for this ol' pickup.

Just a small humorous note those familiar with KC will appreciate: The guy had the carb tuned so rich just to keep it running that I drained over 1/2 a tank driving it home from Belton to Independence...its better now, but I think the vacuum controled advance is causing me problems because it still doesn't like the throttle dropped when under load, but it'll rev through the roof in park...
