You are absolutely right Grant , thanks .A lot has been happening . Brakes , bearings , oil seals needed attention . Installed a brand new carburator , fuel pump , generator and water pump. Primed the inside of the box .

I polished the inside of the rear drums today . What a though job ! Tomorrow i will do the front ones …, Dirty , noisy , dusty ( old asbestos dust ) and lots of sparks . Cleaned and primed the back plate of the left rear wheel . Man those rear wheels are big !

On the other hand, it takes a pretty keen eye to spot the difference from a few feet away so I wouldn't cast aside that Mk.II just yet. |

Radiator installed . Carburator linked to the gas pedal . Coolant in the radiator , no leaks . Brakes functional , no leaks . Transmission forks were stuck . Got them unstuck . We should be ready for first engine start soon . Stay tuned . … and wish me luck.
