Today I cleaned up one of the carbs and prepared it for rebuilding.  I'll do that downstairs...it's getting cold in the garage!  Then I cleaned all the bolts for the oil pan, the timing chain cover, and the rear plate, to prepare them for priming and painting.  I finished by cleaning up a pipe that acts as a junction for hoses to the radiator, the water pump, and the heater core.  It started out really grungy, but cleaned up real well.

I called in 2 more orders today, one from Moss Motors, and one from Victoria British.  Hopefully, I'll have everything I need to rebuild the engine by next weekend, and we (Randy and I) can work on the rebuild over the holidays.

And one last one.
