Dad's Mach 1

[Totalled]

Not much last night. Finished bleeding the brakes. Swapped the rear u-joint out for a 1310-1330 hybrid. (new 3rd has a 1330 yoke) and got the drive shaft back in. The original drive shaft is pretty crusty.. I'm planning on having a 1330 jointed aluminum shaft made.

I didn't take pics yesterday.. just wanted to get the car done and drive it!

Here is phase 1 for the engine and engine bay redo:

I'm using a duraspark distributor to trigger MSD digital 6AL, and Taylor Thundervolt 8.2 wires.

Put some baffles in the valve covers so they quit puking oil out around the breathers... Putting a new brake booster in this weekend... Made an exhaust sound video.

I always loved this body style. Great looking car.
As for the breathers puking oil I had that problem on a 1970 Challenger until I ran a second pcv valve to the air cleaner. I actually just t'd into the single line and ran two pcv's. It had MT aluminum valve covers and I just knocked the blank out of the second side.
