Not a restoration but it sure looks as if you are having a blast! Glad you changed out the airplane blade. They are very desirable but one of my dads friends put a blade through the hood on his Delux Roaster! By the way, that fiber cam gear is there to make the engine run quieter. Less mechanical noise. Did anyone show you how to find TDC ? On the cam gear cover you unscrew that pin and flip it around. Then you gently turn the engine with the crank and that pin "bumps" when you get there. Henry and his engineers did all kinds of neat stuff. Another thought. The gas gauge window in the tank. If it works and doesn't leak leave it alone! They are a real bear to get not to leak. They used white lead or something. Other folk on here know the exact thing but just leave it alone. In your first post I just love the red kit machine. Wish you could buy one. Another thought. Are you rear hubs nice and tight? They are an easy fix with "Beer can shims". You cut a METAL beer can and wrap it around the axle. Then ya slip the hub back on and all fixed. They sell repair kits with the correct gauge of sheet steel precut. The linings on your brakes are the same as used on UNIT cranes spool brakes. There are all sorts of fun things with these cars.
