Congrats! I don't hand crank my Plymouth anymore. 😀

Beautiful! Fantastic work!

Martin, it has to feel good to get back to the Merc! It will look great!

Beautiful work on the top! Everything, really!

Finale is at hand! Start up is exciting for you and us!

A lot of progress and taking set backs with your usual aplomb. Amazing work!

Looking fabulous! hope you feeling better soon!

Gorgeous any way you look at it. Can't wait to see this Merc complete.

Great work, as always.

Looking good! Glad it "cooled" enough to get some work done.

Wonderful news you're up and about!

Goodness, I'm sorry you are suffering so from a double whammy. I hope you get well soon.

Great stack of 3 D puzzle parts. Your skills will have it re-assembled in no time. Like many here, you're very talented. (Martin, you wood enjoy that too.) frank

for what it's worth, my '29 Ply gasket was paper, approximately 1/16" thick. '

I might be misunderstanding, but I would get your finish criteria from Bill/Uvira. This might save you a few $$ and provide the finish he prefers. Can't see new Al over new Ag.

a few years back, but you get the "picture"

I prefer keeping the split in the rim up. Lessens the chance of water getting in when washing.

Great looking bumper - nice work! frank

Here's what your '29 Plymouth contact looked like. The insulation was disintegrating on mine, too. Looked like rubber or plastic to me. frank

Looking good!

Woo Hoo! What Fun - good for you!

Moving out of garage, could you use the engine as the brake? Not running, in reverse to back down the hill and then chock the wheels? Completely unfamiliar with your master cylinder, but I was advised to use brake assembly lube on all rebuilds. I'm guessing you used this too. Your work is amazing. Good luck. frank

Great work. I'm appreciate the expertise folks have here. Hope Florence is kind to you, yours and everyone else in her path.

I used Red-Kote on my Kingston. Purchased locally. http://damonq.com/red-kote.html

Excellent! Hers and His.
