No pics today but got the timing chain cover and oil pan clean & ready for wipe down. Oil pickup tube and other specific specialties clean too. New water pump not due to arrive until Wednesday COVID19 delays. No word from machinist yet.

Way back when you refurbished your parking lights, did you have problems putting them back in? I reassembled my front clip except grille which I am painting. On my '59 there is a bolt that holds grille to box where turn signal mounts. Doesn't look easy to get the nuts on back side of the parking light cans. Can't tell by your pics if cans are in or not. You must have removed them with everything else in place though.

Thanks. After putting dozens of bolts and nuts to assemble inner fenders and radiator support to outer fenders and bottom valance I panicked when I saw the turn signal empty holes. Then remembered your post. Your posts are very helpful. Have to hate you a little for actually getting anything done. Unlike my very slow progress.
