Re: Penny

The weather was quite nice today, so I took the opportunity to paint the new gas tank. I probably could've been fine with just leaving it gray, but I wanted it black to make it not stand out as much.

Also got the carb back on the engine while waiting for paint to dry. I just tapped the holes for the choke and had some screws here at the house that worked. Once I get the tank installed, I'll see how bad my rebuild went and then either try again, or try to source a Quadrajet and attempt to rebuild that.

New year, same rusty truck projects and same front yard paint booth
