Front End Parts!

Here's a shot of the front end components.  The upper and lower A-arms, the brake drums, backing plates are all NOS.  They were pretty cruddy when I got them, but cleaned up well.  New kingpins, bearings.  All has been re-built.  With the exception of the large bumpers in the middle of the photo, all the rubber bushings, dust covers were turned new on the lathe.  The dozen bags in the upper left of the photo is all of the mounting hardware for the front end, front brakes, and front bearings.  Be nice to see all of this on the car and put together. 

Currently the parts are simply painted, but I'm considering going back and ceramic-coating all of this.

Again, I can't help but admire Hudson's fine engineering into all of these pieces.  Quality, through and through.
