I'm back!
Update:
Been out of the loop for a while. A series of unfortunate events have conspired to keep me from making any progress whatsoever! A few unexpected bills popped up. A few other expenses for the "boss's" school also popped up... Then found out mom had mini-stroke so I had to drive down to FL... Just got back and a couple of my old dogs (15 years+ mutts) had medical issues that required veterinary attention and more money...
So, now that the dust is settling, I have a clutch to install one of the dd cars (I'll wait till it gets warmer) and then I will finally be able to focus on the Pontiac. Seems like it will still take a few months to get some cash together to start ordering the wiring and interior bits...
I was thinking of "restoring" the distributor that Andre sent me. Is there anything special that needs to be done besides basic cleanup? (points?, etc) I want to try and start doing little things here and there. (Especially, since we've been frozen for a little while)
Also, I have the original water pump. It looks fine. I was thinking of having it media blasted, lubing it up and re-using. Is there any reason not to use it? It spins fine, just looks like crap from sitting for a while.
Any tips and tricks are appreciated.
