Well, I finally got a free weekend and got Dad's Goldie disassembled to the major assemblies. I've hit it with penetrating oil a few times and fiddling with it off and on until now. It took some searching of this forum before I figured out NOT to drill out the retaining pin in the base arm but to punch it through. I also was slow to realize there were set screws that held the tubes in place under all those dirt dobber nests.
Now comes the task of tacking each assembly and I'm starting with the carriage. I'm still waiting on a copy of a manual I ordered on Ebay to come in. Until then (and probably after), I'm gingerly applying leverage to some of these parts in fear of stripping threads or breaking a casting. I'm having trouble getting the lock rod to come loose from the wedges in the carriage. The exploded view in the online repair catalog hasn't been much help so far. I feel like I need something to hold one wedge tight and then back the rod out of it. Am I right? I guess the same goes for the pinion shaft. Is the retaining washer all that's holding it in place?
Here are some photos of the project so far. I've also run into a casting defect that should be fun to repair.
