Driving again by Thanksgiving didn't happen. I'm now back to work on it. I just started removing the old rings from the pistons. I found something that I've never seen before. The compression rings have expanders behind them. I've seen oil ring expanders before, but never compressions. I believe that the stuff I'm removing is the factory installed parts as the engine looks like it has never been taken apart , until now. My new goal is to drive the car to Myrtle Beach SC to the Run to the Sun next month.
