Invisible Progress

Mr Dickens said it the best"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times"
Fillmore is to a point where I can move him around to gain access to the help I need to get things done and the good news is things are getting done! The worst part about it is, I'm not doing it, I'm not even watching it get done.....and I have idle hands.
Suspension is my biggest issue right now....well suspension and steering, but whats a minor detail like that between friends. Yes as I mentioned earlier the steering was "sloppy"
The good news is that I got Filmore to a place called Standens, and the guys there have been great. They are not daunted by the fact that there is no parts reference number for the work that needs to get done. As it turns out I made the decision after looking at the wear and tear on the rear springs to replace the rear leafs. The front springs are in good shape, but the bushings are shot.

As some of the gents in the flxy community pointed out the pins for the springs are threaded.....and a size and thread that isn't easily found. So we machined new pins and retro fit them to the springs.....as a result it takes more time than expected.
 And so I wait.....
