Progress. Where are you going to get your glass?

Update on Rick.

He did send 3 pictures but he had the common round Delco one.

This contact came from a Rick Jonas, is anyone familiar with him? Is he a member?

I would hate to chase a real lead away.

Went dark when I asked for pics.

And you can add another one to the list.

I have been looking for an Owen Dyneto square starter solenoid.

I got an email from a David Classics with an Oregon phone number saying he had one and for me to just send a Walmart to Walmart payment to his wife in Iowa and to email a receipt of the payment.

The common thread to all of these is the use of non standard payment, Western Union, Walmart etc instead of Venmo, Zelle or Paypal. Those last 3 are probably too easy to trace

Caveat Emptor

Riki,

I have some larger O rings, I will send you a couple.

Coils are restored.

Thanks Riki.

Thought I would add the coils today.

I assembled the water pump and fit it to the timing cover. I got the tower clamps from Steiner Tractor. Mounted the front engine mount. Needs some touch up around the gasket and a couple paint scrapes.

Then it needs to go on the block and the little things like the fuel pump, breather, oil cooler etc.

I have 5 new BFG Silvertown white wall tires, even have the nubs and casting flashing.

These are almost $500 a tire from Coker and are out of stock.

There is slight yellowing of the white wall, but I think that would clean up.

$1750 plus UPS shipping of about $25/tire.

I am working on the vibration damper.
It looks like it has springs and friction plates.

Is it serviceable?

Has anyone taken one apart?
