72 duster resto

assessing journals and bearings is really really tough to do via picture/video. i mean, if they're totally waxed *** you know it, but the the subtle wear that's very, very difficult to ascertain without being there and having eyes, hands and tools on it.

pull the mains and see what time it is, that may change everything.

if you have a machinist that's close by and willing to take a look for not a ton of cash, it's worth running by and having their professional opinion.

the bores look a sight, but that may just be the photography, lighting or some build up. i'd be interested to see how they clean up. pick the worst looking one to start on and you'll know pretty quick how the rest will play out!
