Hope to get it back on track this year. A long string of bad luck has been following me around for 12 months. All I need now is a new motor and the whole trunck is almost new...haha.

First pic on the new rims. I was working on the tranny short shifting near 5k, so no head light out with the hot air, and a lousy 1.7 sixty foot ....she still went 11.6x

Daryl, you were right. The 2 missing oil valley's were about welded over with worn casing material. It took a small chisel to knock it loose then had to dremel them out. It probably would have run hot from lack of oil and wore out very quick.

You saved me bubba.....thank you !!!
