5/2/09

Still culling through all the fasteners and separating everything out. Writing down head markings/types/sizes in a log book. Should help when everything comes back from the plating shop.



Couple noteworthy items from going through parts bags looking for fasteners:

First is the early-style clutch rod seal that attaches to the firewall. The K convertible had the felt style as opposed to the later rubber boot. The original is in usable condition. Will be a nice item to point out.



Second is the rear quarter glass stop. The type with the slide-in J clip must have been the first solution to prevent the glass frame from going down to far. Later cars had a metal frame with a rubber stop that was bolted onto the slide frame. Not sure exactly when this switch occurred, probably sometime around April/June of '65.
