Made some progress on the 100 this weekend.
The box of clean and almost clean parts is getting more full every day. More parts are awaiting another round of paint stripper. I spent a lot of time fixing about a dozen extra holes drilled into the hood by a PO, as well as wear notches from the round things on the pedastal that hold the hood shut. While not perfect, this is a huge improvement over the jagged notch that was there... I also spent about an hour with a hammer and anvil beating out wavy spots and dents in the hood. It's not perfect, but pretty straight.
I'm still hoping to get this done by RPRU. I'll be ordering decals and buying paint from a local place in the next week. The engine needs to come the rest of the way apart so I can decide what all I need to order yet...I've got rings and a governor and gasket set, but I need a rod, dipstick, and probably some other odds and ends.
I'm gonna have to pick up a can of body filler too...there's a lot of pits in the steering column.
