Looks great, Michael. Every time I see stuff like this, it makes me regret not becoming a machinist.

Michael -Get a small twist drill and rotating it between your fingers bore a hole through the base of your thumb nail above the darkest area . Stop when you get blood . It will allow the blood and pressure to escape from your subungal haematoma and hopefully save your nail -Karl

Man I had a heck of a time finding a good pin, cup, and spring a few years ago. My friend had one on a spare '42 hood he had stored. I wound up trading him for some '49 dash knobs.

I’m sure he won’t mind; in a recent phone call with Mac Van Pelt he mentioned he made the tube that goes into the fuel pump stand. These have are machined on one end to fit into the block. We all have old fuel pump stands missing these tubes so this is a simple yet needed part. Contact VanPelt sales if you need one. Last photo is one I installed tonight next to a original.

You guys are killing me here! Such beautiful parts, and I'm guessing not for huge profits, but as a way to add in part to the legacy of our great vehicles.... And as for McMinville Tennessee, I just finished a complete resto of my powermatic model 66 tablesaw which was made there in 1978. Had to do it over last weekend because during the week I can't earn a dime without it.

Yes that saw would have been made here. Powermatic has since moved. Interestingly in 1978 they were owned by Houdaille industries (same company related to the shocks on our early fords). I found a Houdaille industries sign at a local yard sell and never knew the connection to powermatic until recently

Those look nice, but what years are they for? They appear to be too short for '32-'36 and not curved enough for the later models. I would also like to see a set installed.

Have some similar in my 39. Use an el and a straight piece of hose to connect to the radiator.
