Off hand I have to say I see no I’d tags on the parts, my dad had them all tagged and orderly placed as I recall :)

Wishing you the best of luck :)

If these fasteners came off a "dismantling" job, I dare to say you were crazy! They look almost new to me! That car must have been in pristine condition...

Yes Joe, third time was a charm.  8)
Especially since DeTray Plating did not lose even one of the tiniest parts.

I would also share the cost of flight and offer accomodation and food for Brother Joe if he came to look at my car.
Accomodation is not, perhaps, a Waldorf Astoria standard, but it is very friendly and my wife cooks very well.
Unlimited vodka drinks.

Actually, I tend to think Joe could visit quite a bit of Europe this way...

Love the pics. :)
Especially, Alfred's eyes were really excited to see all these new gold colored bolts and fasteners. ;) :D

Wonderful experience,
remember that very well from my own restoration as well. :D

Taleb,
didn't you take any pictures before/during disassembly? ???



Best,
