Getting closer

redgems · May 3, 2013

Well fellas,I am a little closer,However, some how I lost the 16 nuts that attach clamps to wheels.
If anyone has or knows where I can buy used originals please let me know. Regular 5/8 nuts look skimpy ,originals were thicker.
Otherwise she is progressing slowly.In the finishing touches there is always something needed that holds up everything.
Lot of hurry up and wait. LOL
Best, Tony

I'll be honest with you, that's one of the better restoration jobs I've seen lately, all hoses, and wires masked, gauges and everything look great to.

Don't know how my named seemed to change, after I posted on the case forum it changed. Don't know what's up with that.

Nice looking. Cant wait to see the finished product. There might be some wheel nuts on ebay at the moment. They shouldnt be too hard to find somewhere. And you will find the others after you get some lol.

I was on the Case board so I knew it was you..lol

and wondered about the name change too.

Looking very nice! You can get new 5/8" nuts. Just order some HD nuts. They are larger hex and thicker and are just like the originals. I always replace them when I do a restoration anyway. Fastenal or McMaster should have them or be able to order them in for you.

You might try a truck or tire shop the old dayton wheels used 5/8 nc nuts I think they were 1-1/16" or 1-1/8" looks good

I don't know what's going on, every time I reply on a post, I gotta type in g1355. For some reason it wants to change it, don't know what I did.

Its done that to me before too. Kind of a pain but as long as it works I guess
