I am definitely sick of painting at this point. One can short on finishing the dash and she's done with paint.
How fast can I put it back on the road..... (1 Viewer)

By early next week...
Good work dude. Most of the guys I know would be crushing 30 racks in their garage, kicking tires, and talking about their plans.

Well the 40 is forcing me to learn more about her. Looking for the fuel issue has led me to buying a used 70-74 aisan carb and to tear apart understand the inner workings. Of course my '69 had to have the one aisan that was only made for 6 months and parts seem to be hard to find. The float is cracked and the needle valve is pretty poor looking allowing the carb to flood the engine.

Well I finally took Andy's advice bought and installed a new trollhole carb, seat frames are at the powder coater, new seat covers and foam is waiting at the upholsterer, brake cylinders and horn relay are on their way from Mark in CA, and to top off the week my new plate arrived....this is better than Christmas!

the seat covers are a one banana job.
I really like my trolehole carb. Did your 69 have a single barrel or a 2 barrel carb? Mine was a single. Makes a great pencil holder.

Working 60 hour weeks with two young kids and a wife, my time has become too stretched for one more banana.

Mine had a double barrel carb but the cost between rebuilding it and buying a trollhole made it a pretty easy decision. Makes a good paper weight too...

Well hopefully all the electrical gremlins are done! Goes for inspection Tuesday. Thanks to everyone for your help! Andy's good advice and Gary's spare parts especially.
