Early 70s patent pending Easterner

Big thanks to @bladz  for some excellent agent work.   Great job on the packing!

She is not perfect but I feel like she is.

I thought I could get straighter lines with tape and a rattlecan on the wheels. I was wrong I will go back to the brush next time.

Beautiful restoration Red. Great work on that vent rivet.  I’m interested in how you replaced the previous one.

Oops on posting this here. I reported myself... Maybe they will. Move it. Thanks if you do @SixZeroFour no worries if I must continue to look at my fat fingered screw up.

I cheated. I found bolts at my local true value that look just like the kind of rivet they use. Paired with a SS washer and locknut.  8)

Nice job.  Good eye on @bladz for noticing it had a bolt in the top vent that you changed to another bolt that looked like a rivet.
