More cleaning
Disassembled, cleaned and reassembled the front brake drum and rear drum / drive components yesterday. They came up nicely, and the pads and bearings seem fairly new.
Yeah, nice project this - ordering stuff from Germany is an effort, but putting it together is fun. It cleans-up nicely, and it seems in OK shape. Itching to get the frame back from the powdercoaters. The body is still at the blasters, so that won't be back any time soon.
