I've been very busy with the K convertible, lots more progress than I can share right now. Here are a couple items of interest. Date stamps applied to horns and installed.



Brakes were challenging and something that most would have no idea how difficult it is to get right. For a Thoroughbred level car, it could possible be displayed with a drum taken off the rear. The rears are absolutely 100% correct, with FoMoCo shoes and all the proper bits and pieces. The rear brakes were originally Kelsey Hayes backing plates, so the parking brake lever and equalizer bracket are also KH stamped. The rear drum is also KH, date coded correct. Colors of the springs were matched using originals, hardware re-plated as necessary. Front brakes are exact except for the brake shoe liners are "Ford" instead of FoMoCo. Everything else is exact.
