All the bolts, nuts, etc... were bead blasted. The Alternator was repainted and cleared in Matte finish so it will never turn colors again. Master Clyinder and Booster were painted, but new Lid, as I have seen nothing that replicates the Cadium finish to my liking. All new correct Vacuum Hoses, Radiator Hoses, Clamps, Headlight and Engine Harness.
All the Pullies were bead blasted and repainted, A/C Compressor repainted with new correct stickers (not shown), new inner fender splash guards, new Dewitt Aluminum Radiator Black, Brass Radiator Tank refinished and Matte Clear (not ahown). Cleaned and rebuilt Carb, new fuel line and fittings and obviously painted the entire engine
I know I’m forgetting a lot of smaller stuff. Next weekend it should be close to finished and I will post more pics.

Getting ready to put Antifreeze and change the Oil in her this weekend and try to fire her off. Fingers crossed!
