Turned up a couple of small diameter dyes for the bead roller for the 1.5” coolant tubes ends. I ended up having to use one of the larger diameter standard outer dyes as the bead shafts couldn’t close up enough.
Mufflers all welded up and trans axle catch can mounted and plumbed.
The rims are all done. The machinist spent 4 hours apiece on the rims recutting the centre taper, re indexing the drive pins, cutting new centre rings to centrically locate on the axles, and resurfacing the outer rims.
I spent a day wet sanding then buffing the outer surfaces.
Sprayed the inner rims a Satan black and the outer has a clear gloss.
Ran tap over all holes and bolted together. they’re spinning pretty good now.
Next job, fold up the seat back rest and inserts.
