John,
The "biggest project creep" Hummm...
This car was 'stored' for 40-45 years.
My first test drive after getting the B in my makeshift shop was one way... the fuel system was leaking at every rubber and cork part to the point of calling AAA.
Replaced all rubber and cork, pump, flushed the tank, rebuilt SUs, and most fuel lines.
Next came the second one way trip, the return spring on the clutch slave broke...AAA again.
New master and slave cylinders and most of the lines. Clutch , throw out bearing and pressure plate, and changed the brake master while I was there. I replaced rear brake slaves and most hard lines and flex lines on the front and rear, & new shoes on the rear...
Then I got frendly with the stearing...Replaced the Balljoints and Tie rod ends, and found a stearing box that doesn't leak, and descovered the charm of the 'Traficator' chaseing the turn signals...
Thats where I decided to replace the points and condenser starting the current engine rebuild...
I'm getting used to creeping through component driven projects.
At the end of each, another pops up. I'm hoping the latest will get me on the road for a round trip drive and for a fairly uneventful season...
Jim
