Mid-October: Rebuilding

After some amazing work from Cram-McCall Machine shop, we were ready to put the engine back and in get the car mechanically sound!

I was blown away by how clean the lower block looked, not to mention that the paint we used for the inside of the engine compartment was a nice match to what was already part of the engine!

Dad got a little "inspired" by our progress and blessed the engine with a new distributor, coil, and carburetor (the other one was leaking air through the throttle arm)!
