I replaced it with a 1968 302 that I rebuilt and added a nice Sig-Erson Performer Cam. The asshole had put 90 wt gear oil in her to keep the knocking silent. The original engine crapped out the same day I had bought it. The front end suspension was completely replaced, as well as all 4 brake cylinders and the master cylinder. New door panels and rear package tray were also installed. Interior seats were recovered and new carpeting installed. The front window and all front and rear window seals were removed and replaced. I couldn’t wait, so I re-painted it with PPG Ferrari Red Clear Coat/Base Coat paint. Cecil would have had my wait and block it longer, but I was anxious. With a clean surface to work on, I repaired the imperfections over 4 months and hit it with several coats of new primer. The multilayers of crap had to come off, so I stripped all paint off of it with industrial paint stripper and razor blades.

You will note that I haven't done this because in my opinion it has remained civil and civil discourse is what B&B is all about. We also have discretion to edit and have posts removed from any of our threads since it is our own sub-forum. Because we pay for it we have discretion to post threads that are commercial in nature - that is the whole idea of vendors having their own sub-forum. Vendors are an important revenue stream for B&B so it can continue to be the helpful forum that it is. That makes them an expert in my book.Īnother aspect is that as a vendor we pay $500.00/year to have our own sub-forum on B&B which is another tool for a small business. Why do I say this? Quite simply, they try a lot more products from a plethora of manufacturers than I do. And I will call them experts since they are more of an expert than I. I fully intend to post new threads from youtube and the experts that review our products.
