Decided to throw the old wheels and tires online just to see if there was any interest. Had a guy offer me $300 for the set. Hell, I'll have $300 worth of fun putting them on the rear and smoking them.... and I'd still have the wheels after I was done.

Found new old stock vintage license plates for the main muscle car years (1965 -1969). These were never issued. They go well with the rest of the garage art I have.

Not too long ago, my pressure line for the power steering pump was weeping. I took it off, had one made, and put it on. No more weeping pressure line. Great! No the power steering pump has started leaking. I’ve tried a couple bottles of Lucas stop leak and a little JB Weld. Almost stopped, but still a small leak. It was only going to be a temp fix, but looks like I’m going to have to go ahead and replace the pump now.

Ok.... I pulled the power steering pump and got new brackets, as the old square adjustment hole was nearly round. That old pulley damn near didn’t come off. Got everything back together and had a clearance issue with the A/C belts. I’ve had the power steering pump off and on multiple times through everything. I got everything on, clearanced, battery back in, filled back up with fluids and went to start her up...... not even a “click”. I felt totally dejected. The battery tender/Charger is on her now. Hopefully, she’ll start right up tomorrow.

Charged the battery and nothing... Went back over all connections, made sure all were tight, and she fired up... Took her out for a short drive. There is a big difference in the power steering, compared to before.
