Yesterday I removed the valve cover, oiled all components on the head with some ATF to revive the ol’ girl… chiseled some antique oil/ grease build up off of it, and started getting it ready to test fire…
Removed and rebuilt the carburetor today! It’s a Holley AA-1 1-1/16 inch marked on the side Holley list 660-1
This thing was black inside from eating the oil from the oil bath air cleaner, but otherwise in PRISTINE condition! I used new gaskets, shot carb cleaner through all of the ports, gave it a general cleaning and reassembled. Pretty simple carburetor to work on. I will reinstall and move on to distributor refurb and starter install soon… Maybe a test start video within a week? We shall see!
