winter projects ????

Ok!  Zephyr  and early Continental guys & gals, what are you working on this winter?   I'am now over 80 and working all of my spare time on my 1948 LC Coupe .  I'ave had it  for over 12 years and trying to do most of it myself. All missing parts have been obtained. More details later, if anyone interested; and perhaps pics( if I can figure that out).   Larry  #86

I have installed a rebuilt transmission and replaced the rear seal on the engine. Also built an adapter for the engine stand. I still have to put the hood back on and install the floor panels. This is for our 1947 Club Coupe

I have dropped the oil pan to repair the oil float gauge, cleaned and painted the top half of the engine and cleaned, painted and replaced the splash pans beside the engine.  Need to replace the sway bar link next.

Back to my post- I started this post I guess I should add some of my input. Right now removing all of the windows to have glass replaced.  The rear quarters and vent windows are  a real "BEAR"! The

seals and gaskets are shot.  At the same  time polishing all of the S.S. window frames. Anyone been through this?  Fenders, deck lid, hood , skirts, rear splash pan sandblasted, epoxy primed. Any one want to sell me a rt. frt. fender for a '46-'48  LC?  Mine might be just too much to do--Later--Larry
