Well I've got the old girl running and it starts almost instantly even when it has set for a few days. Blows a little smoke for a couple seconds when you open the throttle. Got 50 PSI oil pressure , 40 at idle.. Put on a Denso 1 wire alternator, rebushed the brake and clutch pedals, made up a front grille from expanded metal I had, put in a new tach and volt meter, a new tie rod end, new Steering wheel, and put on an original style seat that I had. Now I need to figure why the 3PH don't work. Nothing to auxiliary valve either. I'm going to take the top off when I get time so I can look inside. I suspect a bad pump as I drained gallons of water out when I got it home. Haven't really put much money into it so I will buy a new pump if I have to. I'll try to take some pics to post when I think of it.
