I dont know what else i am going to end up with for this..


Person I bought it from , well bottom line is Grandpa died and he is selling everything he is making some fast $$$$$..

I dont have the upper rack for the inside ..I am trying to get up with a local man here ZANE who just finished one and want to talk with him and get some direction on this one..he lives about 2 hrs away from me here in NC.

I am going to try to get this started today in between the rain..I have to change the points as very little spark ,,, BUT I have to take the heater out to get to the distrubitor...

I posted pictures on the members albums here very last page TITLED 1955 M-170...If there is a certain area some one want to see let me know and I will get it asap for you..
