Re: Travel Breakdowns
Methinks they overdid it w/pliers, 8 pair?
And 5 adjustable wrenches to boot.

Re: Travel Breakdowns
I think I'll go with Jackson or Larry...A friend in need is a friend indeed.

Re: Travel Breakdowns
To answer nkaminar I rebuilt my distributor completely with modern points and condenser, I bought four sets of points and condensers to have spares.The condenser was bad,checked the others they were all bad. I went with an electronic distributor that used an old Ford case so it looks stock with the spark advance stock too. No more problems. If I were to do it different with the modern point conversion I would keep the stock condenser.https://modelastore.com/electronic-i...roduct_id=4198

Re: Travel Breakdowns
I’ve been the broken car and was lucky to have others help me out. And have been able to help someone in the group with their troubles. Everyone learns something. Never leave someone behind.

Re: Travel Breakdowns
At the recent Orange County Pancake BreakfastI found a flat tire when it was time to leave. The Harbor Area MARC jumped in and looked like a well lubricated pit crew at the Indy 500. Even tho I had a spare, we decided to use a tire and wheel a member won in the raffle so I didn't have to remove my trunk. The red wheel made my Town Sedan look kinda of Christmasy.
Thanks Guys and Gals. Last edited by Y-Blockhead; 06-26-2023 at 08:49 AM. |

Re: Travel Breakdowns
Maybe he was a traveling salesman? I carry a couple of sizes of Knipex Plier Wrenches that eliminate the need for most of those wrenches and pliers. Last edited by Y-Blockhead; 06-26-2023 at 09:04 AM. |
