I am sure they are painted the block color

E-tek just because you finished a couple of nice looking cars does not let you off the hook as to who won the race. Dan

I would bet that it has never been out or repainted. That looks like the typical over spray that is seen all over the none blue parts on a motor.

So: This job took a while, I bought the magical wack-a-mole style and of course it does not clear the cam shaft. So I tried a few other models and there was the same problem with all of them. They all would work well if the cam was removed. So I ordered the Sealy from England. With the exchange rate and shipping it came out to just under $75 cdn. As well it took a few weeks to get here. Once I had the tool as everyone stated it was a nice quick afternoon job to replace all of the seals.

My 7/70 has them as well, I always wondered what they were for as well as the same ones on the inside rear under the windows. Maybe for jig attachment points before welding the body together?

But isn't it more than that, the fact that it holds all of the bits together and there is no collets flying around has to count for something. I can get one on Amazon Canada with free shipping which means it is cheaper than the Sealy shown in post 3

Thanks Looks like it will make my Christmas/Birthday list as well.

Awesome guys, Thanks for the tips and feedback. LeonV: Does it damage the retainers or just put a mark in them?

So it looks like I am going to replace my valve seals, I do not own a spring compressor tool and from what I can find the KD 3087 is no longer sold. Has anyone used any of these types (the style more so than the brand) and if so which one works best? http://www.lislecorp.com/divisions/products/?product=203&division=1&category=6 http://www.lislecorp.com/divisions/products/?product=49&division=1&category=6 http://www.lislecorp.com/divisions/products/?product=645&division=1&category=6 Thanks Dan

I would not say equal time, but here is something. https://www.hagerty.ca/articles-videos/Articles/2014/05/15/Rising-Sons

Jim: You need to rethink going east. Just as bad winters, straight roads..etc. You need come west and open your own shop out here.

I took it out for a spin last week, so we will see if Jan is possible

Got a new calendar from the place I got my car painted and this was a nice surprise.

That is a odd looking dash vin plate every one I have seen is HLS30-xxxxxx and that one is HLS30xxxxx as well, the center consul is from a series 2 car.

What ever you use it for here is what I did a few years ago to make a lever. http://www.classiczcars.com/topic/38110-hand-throttle/?hl=%2Bthrottle+%2Blever

They are both on the same circuit, so I would hook up the side marker plugs to both sides and try it. I use the side marker plug as well and have had no problem with it. Dan

That is odd, I have to ask because you refer to a single side marker. Is the other side hanging out with the black wire disconnected as well or is it still all hooked up?

Here you go

Bodyshop finally sent a bunch of photos of the car when it was being painted. A couple of the engine bay and a couple of it undressed, because zKars seems to enjoy them this way.

Me thinks it is due to vibration

Mark: the paint looks awesome, it looks like you will be very happy to get it back. You can always hope for a nice fall and drive it back. We all know that there is never any crappy weather on the prairies in the fall.

This is the best photo of the manifold I have. It has the flat spots for the air tube but no holes and as well the are casting holes for the heat riser but they are not tapped. As well,here is how it looks with no air cleaner decals

Well, here I thought I was missing out on a bunch of awesome photos of another great ZCON event. I will just wait until they are posted
