Lol, yeah that's the one :lol:

Depends if you want the perfect car or not. I wasn’t chasing perfection clearly but what I did do was, with minimal effort and money, get this thing from the junkyard to the road. Drive it, enjoy it, save it. I’m into this thing maybe $3500 total and it was a MESS

Awesome couple of weekends really wringing this thing out on highways and backroads. Ran it out to Worcester yesterday in 95 degree heat and it ran cool and behaved itself in a way my MG never would. Made it to the 24hrs of LeMons out in Thompson CT with a VW buddy and managed to cannonball down...

So after a radiator swap, pulling the fuel tank to reseal the sender (getting drenched in about three gallons of gas), slicing the brass flare nipple out of a seized power steering pump to install into an o-ring pump I had lying around, straightening a pretzeled push rod and then spending the...

Well I couldn’t find a hose with the correct fittings on both ends, couldn’t find an adapter, local hose place couldn’t make me one. What to do? Well, the TRW has the brass fitting in it and I have an angle grinder……. Ten minutes later, power steering!

Oh perfect! Thanks!

Pretty much exactly three months ago I finally bit the bullet on this thing and set about tackling all the issues I had no idea how to fix. Lots of burns, bruises, wrong parts and wrecked parts later this heap of rust that had been sitting in a RI junk yard since 1989 is now back on the road...

I just replaced all this on my 67 Monaco after installing a new-ish tank. It’s pretty much the same I think. The two vents pictured, the short one clips to the crossbar that the shock tops mount to just above the front of the tank. The long goofy one enters the trunk via the first grommet...

Just got this thing registered this morning for the first time since 1989! I’ve done a bunch of little things here and there buttoning up the build including all new brake hardware and shoes, seam sealing and painting, seatbelts, making a filler neck, trying to solve a frozen diff fill plug...
