[QUOTE="phlegm, post: 102567, member: 12227"] If you are having problems viewing my pictures (hosted by photobucket); I would recommend downloading this plug in for Google Chrome, it will "fix" the Chrome browser and start showing you pictures from Photobucket again. [URL='https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/photobucket-embedded-imag/ogipgokcopooepeipngiikdkpmcpkaon?hl=en-US']Photobucket Embedded Image Fix[/URL] Another year lost... But I am still working on it. Ever so slowly... As always, I had other projects that were priority so this one got put on the back burner, again. But as of a couple weeks ago I decided that this is going to be a priority to get running and mobile under its own power, nothing re-ignites fire for a project like one that can actually DO something. A couple weeks ago, I removed all the stuff that I was storing on top of it and got back to work.

[IMG]http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv256/phl3gm/automotive/Case%201830/20180214_Busywork/IMG_3534_zpss9q3rovx.jpg[/IMG] And a small ignition wiring harness, completely bypassing and replacing all the other junk that the previous owner left behind. There is a 20amp blade type fuse (ATC I think) in that fuse holder.

The arm does not get anywhere close to the ignition switch.

So I won't be using the previous owners 'custom built' throttle linkage, out it came! [IMG]http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv256/phl3gm/automotive/Case%201830/20180214_Busywork/IMG_3630_zpskg9mhlcx.jpg[/IMG] I don't know why its bent like that. [IMG]http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv256/phl3gm/automotive/Case%201830/20180214_Busywork/IMG_3631_zpsw4paef48.jpg[/IMG] I started worrying about belt alignment and how to get everything to spin. [IMG]http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv256/phl3gm/automotive/Case%201830/20180214_Busywork/IMG_3648_zpswbzij6rq.jpg[/IMG] I need to decide if I am going to run the governor off the waterpump, it looks like it would line up nicely. [IMG]http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv256/phl3gm/automotive/Case%201830/20180214_Busywork/IMG_3649_zpsvj1xlj9g.jpg[/IMG] Or if I should use a double groove pulley on the alternator and either run a second long belt around everything, or a short belt between the alternator and governor as was done on the industrial 300 pictured earlier. I've got an IH 345 v8 sitting on the shop floor that I could borrow the double groove pulley from, or I found another Ford alternator at Dad's house a week ago that has one. So either option is a possibility. [IMG]http://i689.photobucket.com/albums/vv256/phl3gm/automotive/Case%201830/20180214_Busywork/IMG_3661_zpskh3cfk6e.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
