With my time in command drawing to a close I have now been able to start planing in detail my way ahead for Nellybell. This is a 6400 that my Grandpa bought used 1958ish and has had ever since. He used her to haul grain and any other random things that needed to be moved and made sure to park her in the shed every night. About 30 years ago the master cylinder failed making him park her in the back of the shed and forget about her.
My goal for her is to do a frame off resto mod in order to turn her into a daily driver esk vehicle that I can use to transport my T6 to tractor shows with.
The first order of business is to get her running in order to make movement easier. To stop her I have the ebrake hence the no rush for fixed brakes. So far she has fought me tooth and nail on this even though she ran when parked. I have replaced the condensor, plug wires, plugs, and coil. I took a file to the points and set the gap to .016. Despite these efforts I still have no spark at the plug. Tomorrow im going to sift through it with a volt meter and try to find the problem, any suggestions on where to start?
Why bring a gun to a knife fight when you can bring a howitzer?
