Re: 1970 Chevy Custom/10

Plans for the truck right now are as follows.. Rebuild the carb for sure, because it seeps gas a little and runs pretty rich, but it will idle down as it should and all that. Float was initially stuck too until some sucking and blowing on the fuel line while tapping with a big adjustable wrench freed it up. I've had it run for over an hour already, awesome oil pressure, (new oil as soon as i knew it would turn over) Thermostat and all works, needs new fan clutch though just cus it's a bit wonky feeling. Brakes are dry as a bone, so rebuilding all new soft lines, wheel cylinders, and drums and shoes all around, and new master cylinder. Fix the passenger side vent window and hopefully after that be able to drive and enjoy it some as I figure out where to go next.
