Switched to the wagon for a bit. used these casters to turn the hub snout down with a grinder. you can see the hub centric ring on there now and also pressed in all the studs. These came from the front hubs I got for the disk brake conversion, pressed them out. love the press.

These are the headlight buckets I think or part of them anyway. before and after sandblasting. They were like cadmium coated or something and had some rust in the bottom of them. They are painted up and ready to go.

Not much but this is just for Jmo. New guage panel. Of course my new 1.5 inch guages require a 1.6 inch hole :( good luck to me trying to find a hole saw.
