Some more time and money spent.... things done and parts installed as time and finances allowed in this current geological age:
New walker muffler, block flushed, thermostat & gasket replaced, radiator replaced (Oh yeah, don't buy a SPECTRA PREMIUM Part # CU886 radiator and expect it to drop right in....even though it is advertised as a direct fit replacement with the minor caveat - fan mounts/shrouds may require modification..... Had to fab a bracket to reach/attach the drivers side lower mount for the radiator fan and make a 1/4" thick spacer for the upper pass side mount for the same fan. The a/c fan is another can of worms. Well at least the radiator was fairly cheap....) upper & lower rad hoses, timing belt & tensioner, water pump, valves adjusted, valve cover cleaned inside & out, cover paint stripped - cover primed...
New plug wires, dizzy cap & rotor, valve cover gaskets - plug tubes included...
