  This one was stock and came with the exhaust you see. It kept the noise down, and it ran strong.

  It's not that you lost interest as you had other obligations that you had to deal with that took your energy to deal with...you just need to recalculate your ideas to finish this...your way. Spring is here and your spirit is renewed! We all have been thru it too!

  @odahithedubious20172 ай бұрын

  I've seen other guys have the same problem, it's herd to sustain interest in something over such a long time. If you set a schedule for yourself, and do something on the project at that time, even if it's something little, that is said to help. You see progress, and it helps keep the motivation up. I have that problem with some of the projects around our house. There are a lot of things, little things, that I need to do. It's been very hectic lately, but I just have to do one thing, and then another. Best of luck, you're really doing a great job. If you go to a car show or two, you may even find someone who can put you in contact with a good body guy who can help you out. Then you can get to other parts of the project that excite you. All the best to you.

  I just did one of these reverse chain cases blind, pretty straight forward if you take your time. But now I'm watching some videos. I just pushed that spring in by hand using a deep well socket with a bolt inside of the socket to start the bolt in there. Problem I'm having now is fork location and adjustment, and I think I'm missing a clip that holds the rod onto the fork. Buddy said reverse never worked since he got it and he fried the chain.

  Sounds like you may need to adjust the chain in the chain case. Mine will make a clunk when shifting from forward to reverse and back again. Just don't give it a lot of gas when making the change.

  @@snowking55 jess. my guess would be a terrible chain. Men it feels like the "slam" is comming at the left foot. where the secondary is. so i dont know... im allways carefull on the gas until it "Hooks". but even then the slam feels right into my soul. it sounds terrible.

  Thanks for watching. I'm sorry I haven't put up any recent videos on my progress, I need to get back at it. I thought about making it into a street rod, but everything was there, so I decided to keep it original. And believe me it's way easier to work on the old stuff compared to sticking an LS motor in it and dealing with the wiring, along with other issues you would run into. Having a shop do it is the way to go. But I enjoy the restoration, it just gets to a point where I don't know anything about what I'm doing, but I just try anyway. Thanks for watching and following along.
