Well I've been hard at work gathering more nuts (literally and figuratively) for my journey on this car. I've recently updated the car a bunch and figured I would update the pics as well. Enjoy.
The latest updates are the following:
1. Painted the duct vent screws the body color.
2. Installed the correct chromed hex heads for the windshield hold down.
3. Installed one of the two correct Lucas stems for the rear view mirror I have seen on original cars.
4. Installed Trico bottle and associated tubing to go to manual washer button
5. Painted the gas tank black.
6. Had Nick Acton make original straps for the gas tank. They came out great. Nick can make almost anything. I highly recommend him for parts. Nick is also making me the radius rod covers for behind the seats that the original cars had.
7. Installed the original rectangular weather striping for the hood.
8. Drilled drip holes in the front corner edges as the original cars had.
9. Installed "semi - correct" looking hood hold down bracket. Original cars had them as part of the sheetmetal but this was the best we (ERA) could do.
Hope you enjoy the pics...
