So she's home...I still haven't named her (or him?), these things take time. But we have started bonding already, since we got home from Arkansas to SC without so much as a hiccup. But I mean, c'mon, it's a Toyota! Once we got some good gas run through the engine started idling nice and smooth, I had to check the tach a couple times to make sure it hadn't stalled. I've got a wheel out of balance or something, but nothing major, just annoying on the road. Clutch is smooth, no chatter, and we found hand written notes that the rear main was changed when the clutch was changed, about 25K miles ago. No leaks anywhere. Not one that I've found yet. There is a little more rust in the rear quarters than the original pics showed, but to be honest, I expected that. Once I saw that they had covered the rusty bits and painted over them to hide them I knew I'd find more. But still VERY manageable. If y'all followed the 62 project then you know this will be a total breeze by comparison. Anyway, I wanted to get the thread started as I begin on the 60.
However this means the 62 project is on perma-hold. I'll figure out what do to with it later.
