ENGINE WORK AND BODY WORK CONTINUE

The restoration is progressing quite well.  Today we continued the assembly of the engine.  The new water pump arrived and I installed it today.  The photo to the right shows the transmission after the finish has been applied.  Tomorrow, the oil filter mount will be installed.
At this point the engine, clutch and transmission is ready to be assembled.  Following the assembly, the final coat of paint will be applied to the engine and transmission.  




Paxton completed the assembly of the trunk lid this afternoon.  Epoxy primer will be applied tomorrow or Friday.  

Life is good!
