"Low she sits on five spoke wheels
Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

Thing starts right up, no choke just two kicks to the accelerator. Then purs like a kitten with solid lifters....

Surprised you're not getting some binding with the throttle rod installed like that, should look like this...

Hi Dave

Thanks for the picture. Truly don't know why it is that way.

 We purchased as is and slowly are attempting to correct the maladies. Thats the way the carb we replaced was set up.

When I have an opportunity I will attempt to place it like the picture you provided.

Thanks again

It's a tin pot operation.  Unsteady camera, poor angles.  I use classical and romantic era music as it remains in the public domain and the composers can't chase me down for a copyright strike.  If they did, that would be a neat trick.  I do what I can with a phone but I would like to get a real and decent video camera along with a gimbal for a steadier shot.  Plus a good drone for aerial shots.  Perhaps I am a frustrated and/ or failed screen writer and director and settled for law as the consolation prize.  And I need to lose ten pounds of fat.  It has become harder since I turned sixty.  But I have a plan.  If I stop eating, I can't keep the extra ten pounds of fat forever.  Or can I?
