Back to the red car... I'm hoping to have it running by the Festiva Madness show in Raleigh in a couple of weeks. The to-do list is a mile long so it may not make it, but I'm trying hard!
I started by cleaning and painting the 1/8" plates I welded in, and also painted the new lower rad support.
The engine is back in.
Carbs on to figure out linkage and caple placement.
The header flange was warped from welding so I roughly straightened it in the press. I'll have it surfaced and ceramic coated.
Fitted the downtube and tacked it to the flange.
