Spent last week doing a few tasks - first, the brakes. Rear drum brakes were shot, one cylinder was blown out. I replaced everything inside both of them and repainted the drums.
Then I decided to restore the original wheels. Sandblasted them down and repainted the center in black and repainted the lip in metallic silver. It looks a lot better and will work for now. Finally, had them wrapped in BFG AT for the classic 80's look.
Now it's running rich and I'm exhausted trying to figure this carb thing out. Will spend the weekend looking for a new engine/transmission combo.
