That pump's pretty enough to display on the mantle! Great job, as always Prestone.

As if by logic, after the fuel pump it is the carburetor's turn to undergo a clown cure

The official appointed at the start of the operation



On the way for swimming





Then let's tackle one of the favorite passes of the Halftrack owners ... the renovation of the hinges



Small assembly for drilling recalcitrant axes

Spring is at the door, so the pieces are bouncing in the garage

The arrival of a brand new gear lever.



unpacking is done, accompanied by a good beer



And that's a nice gear lever



Shelf release from another package



Opening and discovering a complete set of box seal



It is time to get out the box of the shelf, as the bearings are also found

You find some of the neatest assortment of NOS parts. I drool every time I see all the new stuff you get. It is like Christmas each time you post. ;D Keep up the good work.
