Yup was love at first sight, and those are the original tires and hub caps I bought it with , square tread bias ply, funny thing is is rides smooth on hi way no vibrations

 

Of course it rides smooth it's not a Land Rover after all

 

That thing is awesome, congrats

 

very cool. That'll be a nice ride after you're done

 

Why do we not have pictures or video of a smokey burnout yet?

 

Progress

Timing off, distributor in 180* out plus one tooth, housing was twisted around 180* also

Cylinder 8 dead, guy had smashed the gap shut on the plug, all plugs way over tapped and none were tight

Vacuum advance hooked to the wrong spot on the Carb, so now she runs much better smokes tire into 2 nd chirps third

 

Onto the next issue, no tunes! Pulled the radio, they removed the harness so radio is now trash WTF!?!

Went to my buddies junk yard and grabbed an original Motorola from a 1981 camaro, free

Radio has a decal for colors on speaker wires but not power
Also big honk in decal Motorola USA made in texas
Here is a pic anyone know what these wires go to? I assume the black is ground and yellow is power? But what's the grey?

Hoping this fits and works

Pics deleted

 

Probably the lighting circuit.

 

Iirc these old radios are always lit when on

 

I'm trying to remember........ been awhile. What about ignition switch circuit?
