    Fastener Police: A tale of many headmarks

    As many of you know I am restoring #304065, which is an Irish Green '66 with webers.

    One of the fun challenges is sorting through all the hardware, trying to determine what should be where, then processing everything, plating it, sorting it all back out and putting it into about 1,000 plastic baggies to wait for final assembly.

    Since I know you guys LOVE this kind of detail here are a couple shots of the various headmarks I've found on the hardware. This was all tumbled with green pyramids, then two days in walnut shells. Not bad, although the headmarks still needed the wire wheel and the threads need to be chased. I think the plater will probably blast everything anyway, but in my experience with the engine, the better it looks when it goes out, the better it looks when it comes back.

    Now to INVENTORY all this stuff!
