The Boss took our 2 younguns on a trip for the weekend- so I had some shop time. Finally installed the Pertronix unit I bought a year or so ago. Had to look up the directions to make sure I got the right paper in the box- positive ground still mixes me up..
Also, pulled my “new” 9’ box off the parts chassis I just got. Pulled the fenders off and hit that area with a flap wheel.
I’d like to congratulate whoever’s grandpa learned how to gas weld the fenders to the running boards..

Let me tell you- nine feet is a lot of box. She’s a loooong dog.
