With the differential cleaned and primed two coats of semi-gloss frame paint are applied. The drum brake assemblies have been removed and all the parts cleaned and checked for wear. After painting the brake assembly mounting plate, the brakes can now be installed.
Most of the parts, with the exception of the wheel cylinders, were in good condition. I installed new cylinders just to be on the safe side. The drums have never been resurfaced, so I will have them machined after Christmas.
My plan is to apply the final paint to the engine compartment, trunk, inside of the hood and trunk lid. Then the front and rear suspensions can be installed.
It's taking shape...just look back at the old photos.
