Another progress report. The engine started and everything seems to be fine. You will notice the fan pulley already painted black. This week we will be mounting fenders, radiator, etc.
Again, lighting is not ideal, but this picture shows the engine in the color that it really is now (at least in my computer screen). Copper, slightly metallic.
Question: What is the type of hose clamps used originally? I got a set, together with hoses, from a reputable vendor, and I got this double wire clamps in golden or yellow plating (sorry, don't know the name). Is this what was used originally? You will see them only in the small hose to the right of the fan in my pic.
Thanks!
