Good afternoon, folks! A wind of good luck has come! I’ve been quietly waiting to go get the junker 46-480, but I’ve just gotten an email from Mark Oppat. After a couple of months of looking, he found the IF can I need! He had me fill out an order form, and now he’ll ship it to me. I am thrilled!
Aside from that, here’s my progress. I’ve kept at it, but have slowed down a bit lately while I repaint the exterior of my house. I’d estimate that I am about 2/3 of the way done reassembling.
