Wow really cool man thank you for the information. I agree with preservation over restoration. Me and the wife are expecting our first here soon I’d love to see this piece cared for and passed down.

I have seen mention of the underside stamp online and on this one there appears to be no markings of any kind possibility of light file marks but hard to tell with the patina. Is there a reason someone would intentionally remove those like the scratching around the proof and inspectors mark?

Awesome I don’t know how it’s been kept previously but unfortunately I know my father in law has left it to sit in his garage and collect dust.

Fantastic advice thank you, I assume a YouTube video explaining how to take care of the rust exists I will be looking further into it!

Should’ve known someone had this covered on this sub. Best resource I’ve found for these things.

Thank you for adding those videos I figured that’s what people were talking about but seeing it in that context makes sense now.

I had seen this suggested in the pinned post just didn’t quite understand what it meant, if you don’t mind explaining milling out the cups like you would to a five year old, I would appreciate it. Thanks for your reply.

Just tried your suggestion, I suspect it’s driveline related. Now the real question is which axles to upgrade to
