Nice Touring. Is there a toe out on the front wheels? Also how does the engine hand crank stay up like that? Mine doesn't but I am getting older.

It's an original accessory to hold the crank up amd be able to lock it in place. I don't have the correct lock yet. Plus it can hold a license plate. My friend Jeron T gave it to me. I have a set of pristine 1914 plates that were given to me by an Edward E., but they have never been used and shouldn't go on this car.
The toe-in is okay.
Just making a note of the upgrades...
-scat counter balanced crank
- 0.080 aluminum pistons
- .280 stipe cam
- chevy 350 valves
- prus high compression head
- water pump

- distributor
- 12 volt system
- autolite 3095 spark plugs. 2.99 at oreillys
- turbo 400 clutch pack
- disc brakes on rear (tim newbert brake kit)
- ruckstell rearend with 3:1 gears
