Engine Bay
The engine is of relatively simple design. She actually started for me and I drove her into the garage like this. I still felt it was necessary that I rebuild the engine.
The master cylinder came off with the rest of the drum brake equipment and was sent away to be re-sleeved with stainless steel. I intend to use a silicon based brake fluid once it is reassembled
Although this is a "backyard" project, there are many things that just have to be taken off and sent away to be reconditioned. The starter motor and generator are among these.
Helping hands make fast work, but do we know what we are doing? More items are coming off every time I looked around.

The rust becomes more visible also.

Engine removed, it will sit there for a while until I deal with the body.
