Bits and pieces

One of the many joys I derive from working on this old car is taking old rusty, bent or broken parts and rehabilitating them, making them look and function like new again.
I've been working this week on mounting the radiator frame and radiator, to allow completion of the transmission cooling lines, water hoses and basically tightening up all of the loose ends in the engine area before I cover it up for a while, to turn my attention to the body.
In the meantime, here's a few pics of some of the little parts and pieces that have enjoyed a second lease on life. Looking at completed things like these are what inspire me to keep going in the dregs of summer heat.
