Quick update on the 1314.
Currently all winterized, and have started to plan out the repairs for the winter.
First up, rear suspension (replace all the bushings) I have been putting this off for a couple of years, and while I’m there rear wheel bearings and reseal the diff cover.
New carburetor, the original has works ok but they guy I had rebuild it for me did say it was wore out. For example, The top where the oil filled air filter attaches h as been near wore through from years of the filter rattling around on it.
If i have any extra money and time left after this, I’d like to relocate the fuel tank out of the cab. Hard to drive it to work, and arrive smelling like gas.
Lastly, keep picking away at fender fit, and the interior always needs some tinkering (weatherstripping, door seals, noise reduction).
Hope all you’re projects are going well, remember to get out in the shop and work on them, even if it’s only for a few minutes. It all adds up.
