The last month I have been working with the fenders and the footsteps with trimmings. It is the aluminum trim that I have pressed new several times and at last got the right look.
When working with fitting I saw that the fenders connection to the footstep and the trim did not matched quite good Much time spent on remaking the plate and the pressed edge from the fenders to match with trimmings. The work that remains is to make holes in the footsteps for the trimmings that I shall fastened from the underside and make threads in the trimmings.
I have been to a shop for chroming and delivered the in- and out-side handles, parking lights, wings screws for the trunk rack and the bumpers center clamps. The glass the original ones is also being fitted here I would make new ones for the turning lights.
I have got an gasket kit for the carburetor. The carburetor have I dismantled and tried to clean with acetone. The gaskets for the manifold and intake has been delivered to me also.

Rear fenders
The last 14 days I have spent remaking the left and right rear fenders. They did not fit proper to the plate that cover the frame and are fastened to the fender. They did not line up to the outer from the front fenders and the footsteps. There is still some job with them before that is ready.
The rubber that cover the hole under the rear seat has been made and also the ring to mount it with.
The rear axel is adjusted little more and I think it is alright now. The outer bearings is mounted and the cover and distance plates is cleaned. The brake shield and drum is mounted to see how it would fit together I would dismount them and fit them correct later.
The rear springs has arrived bended and ready to be made clamps for and cutting the ends, make bushings and so on.
