Happy New Year's Eve day. This is the final post in the Target 550 "Year In Review" series. It's been interesting to me to go back over all that was accomplished in 2011. I'll just give a simple description: "A whole lot!!!"
This is one of the subtle indications of the progress:
The photo shows a group of parts that have been removed and are being stored in the "back room." This is being done so that the frame can be painted and then the parts will go back in. After that it otta be time to...well, I'll let you draw your own conclusions and just say that things are moving along very nicely. I've gone back to the beginning of the year and looked at the great photos and re-read the text Doc Freud provides and I find something I overlooked every time. If you're seriously into following this build, I suggest that you do the same thing.
But. Here's the link to that last set of 36 images which were selected to give an overview of posts 140 through 145:
http://www.target550.com/gallery/153_year_in_review_07/index.html It includes lube seals for the Greek couplers, the new windshield and its frame (what a work of art!), another look at the polished oil pans (gorgeous!) and more.
We'll be back to our regularly scheduled programming right quick...and I can hardly wait to see what Freud brought back in his camera (even if it IS a Nikon <G>) in the last trip to the shop.
In the mean time, enjoy these photos and I wish you all a VERY enjoyable and safe New Year's Eve.
