Very nice job! I'm not sure I'll have the funds to do such a nice job on mine, but thanks for sharing the entire process and have fun!
 
Finally made some progress...!!

I like the tool you made to hold the adjustment wrenches in place. It looks like it would work well. have a question : Do you have to use a wrench to tighten it up enough to work, or can it be used finger-tight?
 
wow congrates on a fine job rebuilding your flathead. That orange color looks very similar to the stock color on my 53 engine.
 
tubman, I didn't need a wrench to tighten up the tool I used for the adjustment wrench. Adjust it just enough to fall in place, used a hooked piece of wire to pull it out for the next one...adjusted as needed.. it worked well
 
Thanks, It has been quite the project so far, large learning curve! But the guys here on the Ford Barn can take a lot of credit too. The people here have been a huge help..
