Re: Cranks

[KSiroonian@xxxxxxx]

It went past me as well. Guess I read too fast, due to being too busy with work and projects and valentines day stuff. Anway...
So,when and if the weather inmproves I need to start the restoration and tear down of my dads 74 ambo, 360 2bbl sedan. I think I will strip out the interior which is pretty good and then the the powertrain and get it to this rust restoration place. Let me know what is the best and proper procedure for doing this type of restoration. I have never done this type of resto before. I have a good used hood and new front fenders. When last started 6 years ago the engine was fine. SHould I just try to bring it back to life slowly out of the car, or rebuild it. I have never done that. it has about 75K on it. How much of a rebuild would be needed. I guess acording to the previous notes on cranks, that unless you are going racing, or daily hard use, there is is no need to chrome the crank, when simply polishing it will do for occasional use. I guess in that case, if your not going heart poounding racing then its no big thing. Should all the pistons and rings be cleaned or changed? or j!
 ust lubed well by putting a lot of marvel mystery oil in the cylinders and let them sit and soak for a while and then turn the engine over by hand, slowly getting hte pistons and rings to move and loosen up.the car has been sitting outside covered. Any ideas or thoughts, thanks. Its still snowing,,, ugh. SPRING PLEASE SOON!!!!
Regards.
