WicketAs some may know I lost both my elderly parents last year. While cleaning out my dads horde many neat old things were found. This is one and for some reason I just have to give it new life.

White pot metal.I thought it was magnesium but its to heavy. Not aluminum either. The gear box that is. Non ferrous.
You think @cuinrearview is in need of restoration?Boat motors, lanterns, clocks, lamps, ram pumps @cuinrearview ect.
My grandpa's old '69 F250 has a NP435, probably 300,000 miles on it with nothing done to it except for oil changes and it's still going strong 'n' shifting smooth. One person learned the hard way that 1st isn't synchro, though. The ensuing "bucking" made the ash tray shoot out and spew coins all over the inside of the cab. 20 years later you could still find pennies under the seat from when that happened and the person still refuses to drive the truck.That transmission will outlast you great grand kids.
I like the idea of this thread. I have enjoyed many restoration projects over the years, and I always enjoy reading about other restoration work.

I was just staring at this old girl thinking I should give it some new paint, tines and rear rubber.
