1966 Factory V8 Valiant Signet Restoration For My Other Daughter
Two strikeouts today. Stopped at a buddies and thought I had a factory vacuum advance. Nope must be for an electronic distributor or something. Ordered a NOS. The dryer has more pin holes after looking at it close. I saw some restored units from Classic Air and decided my welding is not that bad. Rewelded the end caps and will be proud of them. Got the sight glass out with a home made tool. Put an oring in charged it and it was cold! The oring is not going to hold plus the glass cracked taking it apart. It’s a weird thread so tomorrow I’ll just weld it shut. Don’t need it other and a curiosity piece. Interior is back together and the glass will go in.
