These are in reverse order, but it seems I may have found what is causing the hydraulic lifter noise. I’m pretty sure that there is supposed to be oil dripping out of the rocker arm shaft, but there isn’t. I tried priming the pump by removing the distributor and driving the oil pump with a power drill, but nothing came out. I then tried priming the pump with oil under the distributor, and still nothing came out. So now I’m left wondering if I have a failed oil pump or if I put the head gaskets on the wrong way. Guess imm have to go back through my pictures to make sure I didn’t do it wrong. But I really don’t want to go through replacing the oil pump either... #galaxie500 #ford #leadsled #64galaxie500 #64galaxie #1964galaxie #1964galaxie500 #natashathegalaxie #oldford #oldcar #oldcars #classiccars #classiccar #elcajon #galaxie #builtnotbought #ford390 #igerssandiego #projectcar #lifters #valves #rockerarms https://www.instagram.com/p/CGfgco_AJL_/?igshid=h0a6enf5pz4a

Ok, I got the valve covers off, and can see that many of the pushrods and rocker arms are loose at top dead center. But I don’t actually know that to do now. 😂 maybe I’ll turn the crank one more time to be sure and try swapping the rocker arm shafts because I honesty can’t see any other adjustments I could make. But I’m dreading getting all the #permatex coated cork gasket off the heads. Luckily I got rubber gaskets this time so if I have to do this again it hopefully won’t be as painful. Also, I’ve started listening to #lordoftherings while working on the car. Got through #thehobbit and am now on #thefellowshipofthering. I also reactivated my #audible subscription to get me through the electrical work I need to do after I finish this. #galaxie500 #ford #leadsled #64galaxie500 #64galaxie #1964galaxie #1964galaxie500 #natashathegalaxie #oldford #oldcar #oldcars #classiccars #classiccar #elcajon #galaxie #builtnotbought #ford390 #igerssandiego #projectcar https://www.instagram.com/p/CGEhduaguQ8/?igshid=a16qii09paky

Painting more bits. This time the #horns and some #brackets that I removed last week. Stripped off all the old cracking paint, rust, and dirt and painted them with #por15. And unlike the last time I did the prep work right so the finish is all smooth and pretty. My son found it funny how much the horns look like #nautilus #shells. #galaxie500 #ford #leadsled #64galaxie500 #64galaxie #1964galaxie #1964galaxie500 #natashathegalaxie #oldford #oldcar #oldcars #classiccars #classiccar #elcajon #galaxie #builtnotbought #ford390 #igerssandiego #projectcar https://www.instagram.com/p/B-nbAZlp00x/?igshid=1vqkjzlz0y5ao

More cleaning and painting. It feels like I spent all of last week cleaning 50 years of funk off this car or washing that gunk off of me. Latest is I was cleaning the frame and cross member in the engine compartment. Need to finish it up a bit, then treat it and paint it with #por15 before moving on to the sheet metal for the engine compartment. I also painted the starter and radiator fill tank. #64galaxie #64galaxie500 #1964galaxie #1964galaxie500 #ford #oldford #fordgalaxie #oldcars #oldcar #classcars #classiccar #elcajon #igerssandiego https://www.instagram.com/p/B5k_-kSgNIR/?igshid=vd825ap3uv7s

Taking this beast apart. I think I’m finding why this thing was leaking so much. Most of the gaskets were old and brittle and in some places there weren’t any gaskets, they just gooped silicone gasket seal between the metal. Think today I’ll clean up the valve covers, water pump, fuel pump, and oil pan and maybe paint them tomorrow. Just want to make something look pretty before I continue with the greasy work. #1964galaxie #1964galaxie500 #galaxie500 #galaxie #64galaxie #64galaxie500 #fordgalaxie #fordgalaxie500 #ford #oldcar #oldcars #classiccars #valves #rockers #greasy https://www.instagram.com/p/B5NvADhAdYL/?igshid=1v7jxt54jyf4z

It’s so pretty. My #holley #carburetor just arrived. Now to read the instructions so I don’t screw up the install. 😂 #holleystreetwarrior #streetwarrior #galaxie500 #ford #leadsled #64galaxie500 #64galaxie #1964galaxie #1964galaxie500 #natashathegalaxie #oldford #oldcar #oldcars #classiccars #classiccar #elcajon #galaxie #builtnotbought #ford390 #igerssandiego #projectcar https://www.instagram.com/p/CEF_jGEJ4XN/?igshid=12l1xwla6hnqd

So I learned something tonight that I SUCK at setting timing. I swear it woulda gotten it done quicker if I had just put the distributor in randomly over and over 🤦🏻‍♂️. But I finally got it dialed in, now I need to get some fuel to the bloody carb so it’ll keep running. #galaxie500 #ford #leadsled #64galaxie500 #64galaxie #1964galaxie #1964galaxie500 #natashathegalaxie #oldford #oldcar #oldcars #classiccars #classiccar #elcajon #galaxie #builtnotbought #ford390 #igerssandiego #projectcar https://www.instagram.com/p/CDdBmE7pRnh/?igshid=1bhar0n2j1k4v

Well the lights all work and the car turns over, but the battery is extremely low and one of the ignition wires is missing the connector for the spark plug. 🤦🏻‍♂️ new ones get here in like a week. So I’m going to get a battery charger so I can at least set my idle timing right while I wait. Until then, I have 1 more #Dune audiobook to get through as I’m finishing #thebattleofcorrin right now. #galaxie500 #ford #leadsled #64galaxie500 #64galaxie #1964galaxie #1964galaxie500 #natashathegalaxie #oldford #oldcar #oldcars #classiccars #classiccar #elcajon #galaxie #builtnotbought #ford390 #igerssandiego #projectcar https://www.instagram.com/p/CDVVmVFpwI5/?igshid=miik2ctfw3or

So it’s ALMOST all back together. Last tonight I cleaned off and painted the underside of the hood and this morning i cut out and pressed on the insulation. Then put all the other pieces back in with the exception of the radiator overflow and the alternator. Now I just need to do those few things, put all the wiring back, and put some oil in it.🤞#galaxie500 #ford #leadsled #64galaxie500 #64galaxie #1964galaxie #1964galaxie500 #natashathegalaxie #oldford #oldcar #oldcars #classiccars #classiccar #elcajon #galaxie #builtnotbought #ford390 #igerssandiego #projectcar https://www.instagram.com/p/CDIQBj2pBky/?igshid=1ey88om2ovawx

Putting this monster back together. It wasn’t easy, but it was easier than I thought it would be. So now I’m paranoid that I’ve done something wrong. I still need to tighten up the bolts connecting the bellhousing to the engine and put the motor mounts in, but it’s at least connected. My first time doing all this. #galaxie500 #ford #leadsled #64galaxie500 #64galaxie #1964galaxie #1964galaxie500 #natashathegalaxie #oldford #oldcar #oldcars #classiccars #classiccar #elcajon #galaxie #builtnotbought #ford390 #igerssandiego #projectcar https://www.instagram.com/p/CC2Uh05poMD/?igshid=1aoxz93bah9cr

I picked a hell of a day to do this, making the break lines for the Galaxie. 98° outside today, and muggy as hell in the garage. But it is done, now I just have to hope that they fit with the engine back in. Will have to try that next weekend. But I got to be a #bender this weekend. #galaxie500 #ford #leadsled #64galaxie500 #64galaxie #1964galaxie #1964galaxie500 #natashathegalaxie #oldford #oldcar #oldcars #classiccars #classiccar #elcajon #galaxie #builtnotbought #ford390 #igerssandiego #projectcar #benderbendingrodriguez https://www.instagram.com/p/CCRtdPYpKMY/?igshid=1agqapbgntyq8
