Even though
it's fiberglass, we still call it sheet metal.

I finished
the molds saturday, sunday I made the parts, and monday I
trimmed them to fit.

Today
I riveted all the nut plates (10) in all the parts and attached
them to each other.

The gold
piece is the mount for the injection pump. This also has to
fit the sheet metal.

The restoration
is highlighted by having new sheet metal on the engine.

In this
picture, I'm drilling the steel hub from the aluminum fan.

The hub
is attached with aluminum hard rivets. Now we will send the
hub to be re plated and we'll
re coat the fan. When the hub returns from plating, we'll
hard rivet it back to the fan.
