Thanks people were doubting me but I showed them....LOL I just drained all the old gas out. Im going to flush out all the old oil and water out of the block.I need to bleed the brakes so I can drive it... A Coworker is going to sell me a summitt 600 cfm carb for 125.00 since his needed a 750....Score...

My new pink slip arrived in the mail today! I'm the titled owner now. Yay!!!

I am so happy today! I got my gas tank out and it came out so easily I am STILL just pumped! (Thanks to good advice found here).

I also removed a falling apart door stop/bumper so I need to order a set of those.

Found more rust in the bottom of the cab under the gas tank spout hole. Oh ya, and I have a rust hole in my muffler too! Add that to the list....

Replaced the pcv valve grommet in the valve cover...best $2.75 spent on Black Betty. Exhaust leak is next

Was it running rough or something?

I ordered a bunch of parts: mostly rubber bumpers but did order the new sending unit.

Found out a new radiator from Advance Auto would be some $400.00! YIKES. I guess I'll buy from a vendor on here when the time comes.

Found a new fuel pump at Advance Auto but can't get a hold of the store....both phone lines seem to be out. So....might just go on over there today.

The dang thing (pcv valve) would just slip out, typically when I was doing 60 mph down the hwy, Mister-B. The original grommet was all dry rotted and half of it ended up in the valve cover when I tried to replace it (I fished it out). The engine would sputter when it wasn't securely mounted, problem solved.

Ah, ok. Makes sense

Nothing yet, besides ordering some parts. Hopefully going to pick up a set of 22s for it this evening.

FWIW ;

ALL those pesky , leaky engine grommets are available in the " HELP ! " aisle of your FLAPS .

Not only will your engine run better with them in place and snug but , it'll leak less oil everywhere too as the PCV's mild vacuum helps to slow weeps & seeps .

I always take all the old rotten or blubbery rubber grommets to match them up .
They have the correct long exhaust studs and alloy nuts too .

Clean & re paint the covers when the grommets are out to make it look prettier .

Today I also (after posting that above) bought some rubber hose for the fuel lines and ordered a new fuel pump from Advance Auto. I guess I might as well replace as much as I can on the fuel system while I'm working on it.

That was a heck of a day...did you work 20 hours on it?

For mine, I found a radiator shop that still fixes radiators and dropped off my busted radiator.

found a leak in brake line and spent two hours trying to get the dang thing off. painted the grill, bumper and wheels black to cover up the poor worn out finish. had to wait for the penetrating oil to allow the line to come off and painted the bowtie on the hood to match. came out nice against the white paint

Started cleaning on it after I done with the Javelin. Got a show Saturday at the church where mom and dad goes. Nobody knows they have the Javelin.

I havent complained but I'm getting impatient and ill. But we'll survive.

I've lived without internet before.
