Re: Uber Cool's 1963 C10 LWB Fleetside in England

No, because I'll still get to see it at hot rod shows as he doesn't live far away. It will be like my mistress!

I still have theses to play with




But back to the C10,

Ran the compression check today 150 PSI on 5 cylinders and 144 PSI on the last, pleased with that. Also found the inlet manifold not seated correctly, which explains the rough running. Tomorrow going to strip and rebuild the carb as I think the needle valve is stuck open as it's dumping neat fuel in the inlet manifold, it was like a lake of fuel!
