Cool. Not to far from you at all. I am about 25 miles south of Zavalla. Beautiful country up that way.

Yeah it is. You're not too far. I'm out that way often for my work. All over this area really, lol.

Welcome from the frozen tundra by way of Oklahoma/Arkansas! Spent a thanksgiving one year, welding in your handy dandy local chicken plant right there in sunny Nacogdoches! Boss man rolled up in big black car called each of us welders over and handed us some 100s right out the window, never even got out of the car!

Must be nice for that guy lol.

Welcome. Nice looked 68!! We are about 20 mi South of Livingston off 59. Stop in if ever down this way!!

I hauled home 62 Dart more door last month! Gotta love the more doors!!

I've always been a fan of 4 door cars. Had a 69 Lincoln Continental for a while but life happened and I had to get rid of it.

Welcome from DFW!

Thanks, there is a guy in that area selling some 14 inch rims that I may have to head that way and pick up soon. Gotta wait for some time off tho.

I always pull the gas tank, clean it, look for any hole up on top side, by a new pickup nit ( sending ) while off blow compressed air thru the line from back to front ( Yep take hose off at fuel pump!!! Ha). I bet the carb can use a good oak and kit.

Definitely gonna have to look into doing the same. The car will start up and idle, but as soon as you give it any throttle it immediately dies. I'm assuming it's fuel related. No telling what shape the inside of the fuel tank is in or how old the gas in it is. Luckily there is a gas station near me with some ethanol free 92 octane near me, so I'll be using that once I get it lined out.
