It's about damn time ! Dad got the leather interior done and we picked it up a couple weeks ago. We took it for a drive and found out we have a few leaks, mainly because the damn thing has been together for sooooooo long without being run.
The engine has been built, and in the car, for about 5-6 years now. The first time it was ever run, was December of this last year !
The rear end has been built, and in the car, for about 14 years or so.
Well, we had a leak at the pinion seal. Dad got his new yoke and seal put in today.
Of course, one of the engine oil leaks had to be at the damn back of the intake manifold, so that has to all come back off. We also had a couple small leaks around the aluminum oil pan, so I crawled up under it and tightened all of the bolts and that seemed to help. I think we may also have a leak at the fuel pump block off plate as well, so we're probably going to pull it back off and silicone it real good and bolt it back on.
Anyway, here's some new pictures of the car all together.
