Update time:

Wiper motor has been shipped to Ficken The washer pump has been packed and is ready to be sent to McVey's to be rebuilt. Replacement parts are starting to arrive for the engine. A 'Clipper' rocker cover has been acquired and has been sent with the other one to the stripper. The exhaust manifolds and the rocker covers are going to be powder coated. If we can only find the correct metallic green! The splasher pan has also been stripped and is going to powder coated a semi-gloss black. Located 2 rear bumper ends, to replace the stainless steel replicas that are on there now. Got the power antennae apart, so I can send it off to be rebuilt. Now I know why it wouldn't go down. the 'noodle' was broken as it entered the motor housing and as also kinked up in side the mast. Now everything will fit inside a fairly small box. Power washed the engine bay to remove about an inch and a half of accumulated oil, grease and grime.
