The car sitting in the PO's (Previous Owner) carport.
Note the hand lettered price tag courtesy of the PO's
son. If only the price were accurate. ($100) |
 |
Front view of car in PO's driveway. Yes, the car is
missing some trim. |
 |
Left quarter view in PO's driveway. Jump in and let's
go for a spin! (Wishful thinking at this point) |
 |
Another front view in the PO's driveway. |
 |
After a trip to the garage (an adventure in itself), a
quick bath, and after the bonnet (hood for you
yankee types) was removed. (That's a Fiat Dino
Spyder in the background) |
 |
Radiator area. |
 |
Radiator viewed from driver's side. |
 |
Front left quarter view of engine compartment sans
bonnet. Excellent access to all the bits. |
 |
View of triple dual-Weber carbs. |
 |
The plugs were pulled (left to right, cyl. 6 to cyl 1). |
 |
Plugs 3, 2, and 1. Kinda dirty... |
 |
Plugs 6, 5, and 4. Hmmm... Looks like something
may have happened to number 6... |
 |
View of timing chain tensioner. |
 |
Left quarter view with cam covers removed. |
 |
Cylinder head with intake manifold and Webers still
attached. Intake manifold does not want to part from
the head. |
 |
Another view of the head. Hmmm.... that cylinder
on the right (number 6) looks a little stange... |
 |
Another view of the head (and that pesky manifold). |
 |
Closeup of 5 and 6, 5 being normal and 6 being, well,
abnormal (where's the exhaust valve?) |
 |
All 6 cylinders. Wait! Where's the piston in #6? |
 |
Closer view of block (cyls 4, 5, and 6) |
 |
Closeup of cylinder 6. That's the gudgeon pin and the
end of the connecting rod. |
