Says the chief non-rusher here.......

 

Though with a family gathering coming up, I suppose we could cut you some slack.

I like the added off-white contrast.

      Had just cleaned out the fuel system and thought I'd run it around the block but with the clutch depressed and slack in the belt the transmission pulley still is turning too fast to allow it to go into gear.
       
      Here is the picture of the setup. Am I missing a part or have I miss installed something?

      I just picked up this 1960 Suburban 400 off of Craigslist. My trucks starter decided to take the day off and I got stranded a hour away from home in Green Bay Wisconsin in the shadow of Lambeau field with my daughter but we got some help from family and got home with our prize. Now I have the transmission torn down and need a spider gear and a shift lever collar. Does any one know if the axle has too much wear to re-use? Any help would be very appreciated. The break lever gear on the shaft seems to have a little more wear on a couple spots than I would have liked to see but I think it is ok overall. (can't seem to get a good picture)
