Finished the gas fill pull out funnel from post 215, braised on the 3 key way plugs so they don't fall in the tank. Made a die to shape the brass filter screen from a piece of 2" pipe and an old bearing race, soldered the inner retaining ring. Sound easy? Not at all, 3 hour job, but done.

Two of mine are in the tank, at least my screen is intact. Looking good.

Are you two saying the funnel slipped inside the tank? If so have you trying to get it out?

 

[Cruiser_Nerd]

No, that would really stink. The locking tabs just break off and fall in. Funnel works just fine with only one.

Finished a turn signal stalk lever, way to cold to paint the housing.

No other forum, still building.

It looks amazing! I can not wait to see it finished.

So you think your going to PR ... this had better be finished before you go young man ... don’t make me tell you again

 

[Cruiser Museum]

Hey, thanks for coming by the museum! We would love to see this when it's finally completed.

Take care

Found a very nice top, just needs cleaning, now I need "B" bows, side curtains, and a back panel. And doors

If you decide to make a new top, panels, and door covers I will go in for a set at the same time. I’m sure matching sides to that top will be difficult.
