weaverama, nice work and I'm no expert but what JayBrd's saying makes sense.
Well I "worked" on the Original today for 3-4 hours. Replaced s/g, voltage regulator and most of the wiring as I was frying headlights and now all is good:biggrin2.gif:. Then went out to plow driveway and one of the chains broke so it was back into the shop. Was going to put another set on and then had the bright idea to put the ags that I just got on, what a mistake that was  . I didn't have chains on them and thought they might do ok, lol, they spun like crazy and I had virtually no traction!! So it was back into the shop and instead of just replacing broken chain on original wheel, I took the wheels off the 71 and mounted them on the O', they have 2 sets of weights on each wheel and the chains were setup much better and wow, they work alot better than just having one set of weights on!
Can't run chains on the ags either, not on the Original anyway, they'll hit the fenders.

Once I plow the drive a few times it is ice and chains is the only way. Good shots of the "O in work detail! I like in original paint too! I had a chain that broke so for a buck at TSC, I bought a link and fixed it that way. My chains rub on the inside fender a bit, guess it is the nature of the beast.
