had plenty of practice on the painting :) I like that IH red paint. goes out and covers good. and that nason quick dry hardner I'm using now.. WOW it's awesome.. that and medium reducer with a lil splash of naptha... almost paints itself. since i've switched to that setup, I hav seen a 90% reduction in runs.. and the few I have seen, 99% of them can be folwed or painted out.
on this one I got lucky, the 'canvas' was near perfect. no rust holes, and well cared for tin.. obviously previous restoration efforts were still present and holding.
just needed some leaks wipes and a service and orings and some fittings tightened.. and I jiggered witht he electrical more than I wanted to.. but she charges for now. at least till I can get the new vreg in.
you are right on about them weights. My back is barking right now. I forgot how heavy the C were since I was able to cheat and use a floor jack since the C would back ontot he concrete at my garage. H is a hair to big to do that.. so she sat in the dirt where the shop crane and jack don't like to play. After I hung the first one.. I seriousle considered calling a buddy to come over and help with the 2nd one. 'm thinking they weight more than I do.. :)
lone lever got them on, and a scredriver poked in a hole long enough for me to push a bolt thru and slap a nut on it, then relaxe for a couple moments :)
almost as bas as those ford wheel weights that go INSIDE the front rim and are 2 piece. no good way to hold onto them without mashing fingers. at least they are only about 40# or so.. :)

I worked as a machinist and engine erector, with time spent overseas. I have always had a love for machinery, and an appreciation for farming and farm machinery. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery.
