I thought I had 2 but the spline is the wrong size
Wow. Take care of yourself. When I was 18, the flu didn't slow me down much, but at age 55, this last bout knocked the poop out of me- I was flat on my back in bed for three days, and felt like I was gonna die.

Using Ford relay just for junction to connect positive wires to and to use as a remote starter button. Found on shelf

Fuel system missing sample valve, but otherwise done

Front wheels mounted and balanced. Found new steel stems on shelf $20

I'd get it out of the cap and get an oil filled Blaster or something and mount it where it will stay cooler.
