Details such as correct colors, plating material, inspection marks, orientation, and even the number of wipes that should occur for a vacuum-powered windshield wiper system after pushing the "wash" button.

Had the leaf springs re-arched. Picked them up and dropped off to the sand blaster yesterday. They’re back home and waiting for paint (once I finally figure out the original/stock color).

Also, took the rear axle to the differential shop today to go through it, sand blast the housing, and repaint it.

Daily progress is my goal!
