    I like the damper tool you made to turn the engine over with. Works both ways too. I never thought about the tape over the intake restricting air flow while doing compression check, good catch. Tape over intake while working on it smart. Those guys are fantastic.

    If that car was mine, I would touch up the paint where it needed it.Then I would cut and polish the car and keep it as original as you can

    I'll ask - wouldn’t it be more economical to just drop in a GM crate engine in it? Seems like the budget would stand a few $$$ more to recover at the sale.. Thanks . Great job so far Pete and crew.

    Nothing personal but when the mechanic is trying to start an engine right after major work, he does not
    need the peanut gallery talking over each other. Especially when he is trouble shooting.

    I'm sorry man I like your content, but you lost me when your mechanic used the rubber gaskets on the China walls instead of The right stuff RTV.

    No that's where you're wrong the carburetor should be just as responsive as anything else they've been carburetors on cars for $100 years are close to it and I've got a 64 I've got a 55 and when you give them the gas they take the gas they don't labor law and then when you give it to gas and then all the sudden decide it's going to take off and rev up it revs up when you accelerate so that crap is wrong there's something wrong with it that's causing it not to take the acceleration when you give it to gas that's not common I've been doing this shit for a while and I know what I'm talking about

    36 days and still ain't got that junk engine running. Don't you have a good SBC sitting in the corner. One hour out. one hour in. You need to weld the chassis first. If you selling mint condition 57 Rag.

      @Ironcitygarage we just all waiting for the price. How many green backs you looking for. Cwanta Costa. That's all we want to know. We don't want 36 days labour bill on top. I say 25.000. And you lucky to get that.

      @Ironcitygarage Brother if you can get 50 G for it I'm proud of you. There was less 57 Nomads sold than rags. Desirable car. Easy to fix. But think the bottom dropped out the rag 57 market years ago. And then parts prices sky rocketed. Good look. We all waiting on the price of this golden egg. 👍👍🇬🇧
