Changed the oil in the differential and transmission as well as replaced the fuel filter.
Changed the spark plugs and decided to check the timing and condition of the distributor. I adjusted the points gap but the rotor and cap have seen better days so I decided to order new parts.
Replaced the rear window struts so it'll stay up and not come crashing down on my head at random times.
Still need to flush and fill the coolant at some point and I'll be replacing the thermostat at the same time.
This'll be it for the general maintenance for a bit. I'll enjoy the car for a few more months this year and get it set up for the Winter. Next year I'll probably replace all the suspension and steering bushings and maybe attempt to rebuild the carburetor.
