It has been a total frame resto- off. Since I took it apart myself I’m afraid there are many things I have forgotten as I try and remember where all the parts go as my son (who I have given the car to when I’m no longer able</span><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Wingdings'>J</span><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>) try and figure out where everything goes. I labeled most things and took many pics but there are still some things that I may need help with. I did order many $’s worth of parts a long time ago from TRF and Moss so at least I/we are working with hundreds of new parts.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Body parts on the whole are pretty easy to put back together but now we are in the process of putting the parts back on the engine but a question came up. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>I look at the distributor and notice that the vacuum was intentionally plugged. As I recall now there was never a vacuum advance tube ever coming off the distributor when I bought the car in ’75. What is the potential significance of this and is it necessary to have that done correctly. The car ran fine back then and the only reason I started the frame off was the timing chain tensioner broke.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>The other pretty simple question that I hesitate to ask however, there is a ground cable attached to the engine on the exhaust side. Where on the body is this attached. Sorry for the dumb question however want to get this right.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Last thing, does anyone have any detailed pictures of the engine compartment they could send me.
