Re: Great Grandpa's Legacy reborn

Not all things are meant to be as we ran into a problem the last couple weeks where our power steering pulley and pump gave up the ghost due to unknown cause. To pinpoint it we are between the keyway being laid over or the spacing/alignment was simply off. So it took us nearly two weeks from tear down to locate a new "keyed" slip on as they apparently are not an easy to find double groove pulley. but in all a new power steering pump.. And a new pulley put us back on the road last week.

Another eventual issue is solving the severely leaking heater core but we're simply looking at routing the water outlet from intake directly to the radiator for the time being. Vintage air will be an absolute for our replacement it's just simply coming sooner than later in the build. Minor mods but overall a much cleaner system and a lot more efficient. I will try to post more this Saturday of the upcoming milestone. Nothing new to report other than this for the week.

P.S. Papa-San Is very happy to have his good old c/10 back this week as he bugged and pleaded for a quicker repair the past two weeks but all Is good now
