The B's going together now in the home stretch. All of the accessories are going on and adjustements being made. I need to locate a stronger spring for the brake pedals. As I remember from 10 months ago, the pedals wouldn't retract to the operator platform. Also need a starter rod, light gaskets, and retrieve the four square head rim to wheel bolts from the farm. Can't mount the left tire/rim until I get these. I have a few drips on the fenders to take down and touch up a few cap screws. Waiting on the battery box and harness from C&G.

The oil pump and pickup tube has been primed with white assembly lube. I was thinking of adding oil behind the pressure gauge to get oil through every accessible passage. Anyone use a rubber pad for mounting the radiator?

I found springs at Eagle hardware (which has been acquired by Lowe's) that worked for my B. You might check Lowe's or a well-stocked hardware store.

I cut a strip of rubber from a chunk of radiator hose to use under my radiator, seems to work good though it was a bit thicker than the pad I took out.

That B sure is looking pretty. Bet you can't wait to get it fired up again.
