Installed a new cowl vent handle/brace last night with a good knob and adjusted the mechanism to work properly. Also put in a matching ignition lock cylinder to the glove box for which I have the key.
I also pulled my gauges last night for rebuilding/freshening up (new needle, decals and gaskets coming from Jim Carter). I know the oil pressure gauge works & i put the bulb from the temp. gauge into a pot of hot water and confirmed it works. I also put a multi-meter on the amp. and fuel gauge and both are functional. Waiting on my replacement speedo needle and decal kit and then these will be going back together looking as good as new!
