My 17 year old son and I have about 9 months into this project. Our first car, working together. Real 'encounter session'. We have the car running with many learning-experiences along the way.

1. Brake Cylinder - weird installation method, on our 3rd re-try, when will it stop leaking?
2. Valve adjustment - third time was a charm - man can this thing make noise!
3. Pedal assem - Seems OK.......then: let's take it apart and make it smoother.
4. Transmission linkage - All seems in Order, what are those bushings??? Hhhm, rebuild
5. Throttle Control - seems sticky, let's rebuild it! 911Rubber!

Pretty rough looking after 45+ years

I would like to add that I am trying to figure out the best method to clean parts. Currently we are using degreaser and then various wire brushes (steel and synth) which is less than optimum. Comments welcome!

I use pinesol great on the aluminum , but don't use it on the brass it doesn't hurt it but turns it black, also pinesol will strip cad plating.
