11-14-10 continued...
Once the wheel was sorted out, I started to look around and put misc. parts back on so I wouldn't loose them. The distributor was put back in without being painted and I kept it loose. Reattached the distributor cap, coil and spark plug wires. Hooked the metal tube back up that goes from the distributor to the carb. Moved the generator bracket down and reattached the bolt to it.
Once I was pretty sure that I had put everything back on, I put the fender back on, using only the upper bolt on the cowl and the two bolts that attach to the radiator support. That will do for now, since it will come back off in the Spring to redo the brake lines.
That should be it except for working on the harness. I'm about 1/2 way done with that. Most of the main runs are done. Now is the smaller connections between bulbs and switches.
Not too many left over parts...a split washer, regular washer and some large rubber washers. I believe these go on the fender somewhere, perhaps as an insulator to prevent rubbing. Not sure where they go exactly though.
