I own my own shop, and to be honest working on a 40 year old vehicle that is not a collector's vehicle is a hassle. The assumption is that people seem to think anything with a carb is cheap or easy to work on. I work on stuff like that all the time, just put a clutch in a 75 C30 work truck, but I always warn of down time. You might not believe this, but in some areas, you can't just walk across the street and get parts for that old stuff anymore. When it comes to messing with a Qudrajet, cleaning it and putting in a kit is one thing. Trying to source or repair little bits and pieces can be problematic. Some of the common parts from years ago aren't so common anymore. I had to special order a clutch fork and clutch for that clutch job I mentioned, I was glad the bearing retainer snout was good, used to run into those shot. Those used to be parts any store would have atleast 2 of, but not anymore. Those shops need stuff they can turn quick, I run a country shop, so people will wait.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
