The weather has been so nice on Long Island that I pulled the 31 from storage a little earlier than planned. To my joy it started up after cranking a bit and ran relatively well. I'd done a valve job just before putting her away and have not tweaked everything to my liking. I need to pull the transmission, bellhousing and clutch for inspection. Second gear has a missing tooth and luckily I have another tranny from a 31 parts car. also, I am installing a Hamptons interior purchased last year. I'll set up a 4X8 work table to aid with layout and fabrication for the interior. Thanks for reading this and suggestions are requested as always. Al W.
