During August and September Steve and I have worked on the Plymouth. Steve bought a bell and he and I made a bracket and mounted it on the hood. We painted the inside of the cab. We made an appointment to run the Plymouth with the new batteries and rebuilt alternator. We made a few runs up and down the track when we smelled something burning. The starter solenoid and starter were smoking and too hot to touch. What caused this and what damage was done, we don’t know yet. Steve has another starter to try on the engine.
